What do you see when it powers up? Because you only get "Beep Codes" when the system fails in certain ways. Do the fans turn? ifso, for how long? Do you get to the Windows Splash Screen? Does it Bluescreen?
That board (HP/Foxconn Napa) uses the nvidia GeForce7100/nforce630i chipsets. Many on-line PC parts & supply stores allow you to preform advanced searches. If you can search by chipset then you sould be able to locate a similar mobo.
oh wow. Why would the lady say such an ignorant thing with such
conviction. This is just nonsense as we all know companies outsource
all the time, precisely Retail driven, close to the end user companies
like HP and Dell. PRODUCING is not the same as contracting out a set of
mobos like the gentlemen correctly suspected of being the same as a
foxconn model. I happen to have an HP with a foxconn mobo (and to the
guru lady, it seems to also have Nvidia's signature, so really, what
you see here, is Nvidia provides tech, Foxconn manpower and efficiency,
and HP sales and marketing and the product sells, but suggesting HP
which cant get to the phone to keep up support go out and actually
manufacture their own mobos is the stuff of laziness).
To the gentleman asking, I have looked at the specs and your analysis
seems to be right on. Here's another exact HP product (the one I own,
given another HP special foxconn mobo name given the sheer volume of
business these folks generate to foxconn. It does seem to get often
confusing though and if I were you, and you seem to be quite familiar
with hardware and the such, if you were to attempt a flash, make sure
to backup first, that is the only harm you will cause to your computer,
if you are not cautious even when you're certain. Here's the link to
which I mentioned so many times:
Normally the best place to get drivers is from the manufacturer's website. However, HP does not support downgrading this model to XP and thus does not have drivers available on their website.
You can try to get generic drivers from the original manufacturer of the motherboard chipset. The problem is in identifying the correct drivers for your model. According to the product specifications from HP, your motherboard should be a Foxconn MCP73M01H1. The HP designation for this board is Napa-GL8E. If that holds true, the following drivers should work for you:
