Please recheck model number that this is correct T3109
Or ...
Please provide the eleven or twelve digit SNID.

Their search page is ****ed up. After entering "t3104", do not click on
the Search link. Instead click on "T3104" that shows up in the
drop-down listbox.

I'm sure Dave will be able to trace down the actual web site.
The thing is, Emachines has changed hands, so this means
it isn't always easy to figure out where the support
page has got to. Even if you figure out who owns Emachines now,
the support page for the old hardware may no longer be present.

You may have added a video card to the box, to replace the
lightweight graphics core. You could not game on the Unichrome
stuff. Even early "The Simms" would run like molasses. If you
stuck a video card in the machine as an upgrade, then you'll
need to provide details of what video card is in there. How you
can tell this, is look where the monitor cable plugs in. If the
monitor cable connects to the I/O plate area, then you're using
the S3 UniChrome Pro integrated video. If the monitor cable
plugs into the PCI slot area (individual slots on the back
of the PC), then you've added a video card to it and need
an entirely different driver. You then need to identify the
added video card, to find the driver.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16883114011

Semprom 3100+

Via K8M800
S3 UniChrome Pro
Graphics Interface - Integrated video

The Asus A8V-MX would use the same chipset. So you can
try either of these links, and get a K8M series VGA driver.
So one of these two, could harbor a video driver for
the built-in video output.

http://support.asus.com/Download.asp...8V-MX&p=1&s=21

http://support.asus.com/Download.asp...8V-MX&p=1&s=20

If you compare the uc03i.inf file from both of the video (VGA)
downloads from those pages, the hardware supported is listed as the same.

uc03i.inf

[VIA.Mfg]
"VIA/S3G UniChrome Pro IGP" = viagfx_3204, PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3108

If you open Device Manager (devmgmt.msc), on your running WinXP install,
do Properties on the existing (VESA driven) graphics, the
"Details" : "Hardware Ids" should have matching numbers for the
VEN_1106 and DEV_3108. That tells you, you're in the right
ballpark for the driver, and can go ahead and install it.

*******

I don't see a sound driver here.

I just know it uses RealTek AC'97, because it has a RealTek NIC driver,
and it would make sense to go RealTek on audio too. But how do I prove that ?

https://web.archive.org/web/20110418...1&modelId=1547

The closest I could get, is an Ebay auction page. And
we all know how accurate those are.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/EMACHINES-T3...-/130495841793

This listing is for a eMachines motherboard P/N: 103534
Audio: AC'97 code 5.1 - Realtek ALC655/658 (dual layout)

Now if that's a match, or even if you see a RealTek audio
chip in the "audio corner" of the motherboard, then you
could use a RealTek AC'97 driver right from the RealTek site.

OK, here I see, the 1x3 audio stack, a motherboard mounting
hole, and then the tiny square RealTek chip with RealTek
"crab" logo. So it's a RealTek, and the AC'97 driver
will take care of it.

Start here, click the "Accept" tick box.

You guys sure are a source of info. I really appreciate your
time/efforts.

I have come up with a satisfactory video driver, but not audio.
The video is:
VIA/S3G UniChrome Pro IGP video driver for the eMachines K8M-800M
motherboard
ie
VGA_S3_6.14.10.241_XPx86_A

Device Manager's 'flag' is resolved.
(My video is MOBO, not an added card.)

The audio is another matter. The only driver I found that seemed
okay, as it resolved Device Manager's 'flag' is for Soundmax SFX,
so-called 'T1140_50'. However, I get no sounds, not even for a music
CD. Not in Control Panel either.

I did all this before I received your responses. I need to read them
over now.

Thanks again

Me

So you could uninstall the SoundMax and install the
RealTek instead.

Since manufacturers sometimes use more than one motherboard,
and there are a lot of variations possible (stuff I might
miss in my searches), you can satisfy yourself it's a RealTek
and even try reading the ALC655 of the top of the chip
if you want.

[Should open and give you a motherboard picture...]

http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/3/2...72_o.jpg?nc=77

I forgot to paste the link in my post, so you didn't get to see
the picture. Look for 1x3 audio stack, look towards the right for the
next mounting hole, then to the right of that is the tiny square AC'97
audio chip from RealTek. There should be a crab-like logo on the chip.

The RealTek drives are nice, in that one file handles all the AC'97 ones,
and one file handles all the HDAudio ones. You want an AC'97 driver in
this case. You can always look up ALC655 or whatever number is on
top, and Google and verify it's a member of the AC'97
family.

And the way the audio works, is a 1x3 audio stack needs dual
definitions.

If you insist on 5.1 audio output, then 3 jacks times 2 signals
each are required. That means all the jacks become outputs when
you use 5.1 audio. The 5.1 audio is only needed (most of the time),
if playing DVD movies in all their audio glory.

If you're content to listen to the world in stereo, the green
jack drives your stereo signals, and now the other two are
available as recording inputs. Usually the motherboard has
a bit of multiplexing logic to make these two definitions
possible.

On HDAudio (later) systems, there is less multiplexing
and fooling around, and more provisioning of full sets of
jacks. That's one thing that HDAudio got us as a user benefit.

And you can have plenty of audio channels, if you buy a sound
card. But unfortunately, the card makers still haven't got the
memo, that these cards should be dirt cheap. That's why I don't
own any good sound cards here. I rely on motherboard audio,
and I even have a retired motherboard in the junk room, with
ALC655 on it. Worked fine for me. CPU is too slow on the board
and that's why the motherboard is retired.

As VanguardLH noted
http://www.emachines.com/ec/en/US/content/drivers
Enter -- T3104

VGA - S3
http://global-download.acer.com/GDFi...HINES&SC=PA_6E

VGA - VIA
http://global-download.acer.com/GDFi...HINES&SC=PA_6E

VIA chipsets are multi-faceted. that is many functions are combined into
the chipset and that makes them inexpensive. It also means the CipSet
Drivers cavers various subcomponents.

I did compose a reply with info on where to find the drivers. However,
after cleaning up the attribution lines mess, noticing the huge delay in
the reply datestamp, and checking headers, we have:

- aka Billy Ray Ferrell is a nymshifter hence troll. Billy
is already known as a troll.
- Billy Ray Ferrell is attempting to hijack

So I deleted my reply content because I'm not replying to a nymshifting
