cellmartinc 0 Posted September 30, 2010 I have 2 diffrent types of cards - I believe both came out of Linus system (1) This card says CV08A - from this forum I know that these are used by Cybervision. Question is - My motherboard died - can I plug in to any generic motherboard and it will pick up drivers? or it has to be Gigabyte MB? I do have secure disk for this card (2) This also came out of working system. I dont know who is manufacturer. I need software and Driver for these cards. I hate throw them away in landfill!

Soundy 1 Posted September 30, 2010 The card drivers have no relation to the motherboard - they're strictly little bits of software to let the operating system communicate with the specific hardware. You'd probably want to use a motherboard that at least uses the same chipset as the old one (Intel, SIS, VIA, whatever) for best compatibility, but in theory, you should be able to just drop another board in there and have it work. On the second card, see if there's an "FCC ID" number, either on a label or silkscreened to the board. If so, you can look that up at www.fcc.gov and at least find the manufacturer.
