You can get the drivers from here

Ensure the correct and most up-to-date drivers are installed for the sound and ethernet.

You can find them here: http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Support/Motherboard/Driver_Model.aspx?ProductID=1860#anchor_os

remove cmos battery , shot metal pins on the borard (that use 2 connect battey ) for 3 sec reconnect battery , will be ok

There isn't one on the back panel. You must connect the USB/1394 bracket that's included with the board to an empty slot on the rear of the computer and hook up its connectors INSIDE the computer to the appropriate headers on the motherboard: the purple firewire connector would connect to the purple header (DUH!) on the RIGHT in the pic below, it's a DOUBLE firewire header and it's the only place this bracket will fit. The yellow USB connector would go to any open USB header on the board (guess what color...) Very simple, really.



Optionally if your computer case has a built-in firewire port on the FRONT panel, as most do nowadays, you can connect that to the appropriate header on the board using the already-installed cable that's connected to that front firewire port (connect this one to the purple header on the LEFT, it's just a SINGLE firewire port.)
However, this header's pins will NOT match up properly with almost all case's front-panel firewire connectors. You would most likely have to switch around 2 or 3 of the little wires that go into the connector so that it matches the motherboard's pin-out.

It's clearly labled in the manual for the board, and isn't really all that difficult to switch the wires around, but I would recommend just going with the first option and connect the included bracket to the back since it was designed to go with this board and requires no modification.

try setting up your headphone at the control panel. select the audio, there you have choices to try both your headphone and your headset. If didn't work out try to reinstall your audio software which is on the Utility CD of your mainboard.

O.k. start by making a bootable disc or diskette to flash the bios with. This should get the machine to recognize the drive. If this is what you did before, do it again, because something didn't download or come out right on the disc. Once you've done the flash, if the hhd still isn't recognized then most likely the virus has done it's damage and the hhd is shot. Just a piece of advice, run only one antivirus, I recommend AVG, it's all you need for antivirus, spyware, and adware, the new 8.0 version is right on. With antivirus, the more the merrier, IS NOT the case. You actually made your system more vulnerable by having several antivirus along with spyware. The antivirus companies have made them to recognize other antivuruses as a threat. So, they conflict with each other, and can't do their job.

Washing the mobo? If this is not a mistake I will try to provide you with a coherent answer. Unfortunately, if you did in fact wash the motherboard, I do not believe there is anything I can offer.

can you get into the bios?

If it is not an accumulation of dust and if your fans are working properly and your ventilation is not blocked, that there was not a built-in cooling system for this integrated part makes me wonder what is going on. One would have thought it suggested such was not necessary. How old is the thermal paste in the computer? I would replace that before trying more desperate measures. Rather than presume the fan was working, I'd make sure that it was. Here are some causes and fixes: https://www.onecomputerguy.com/gpu-overheating/

no PC told at all no OS told either. sure a DESKTOP sure. no monitor told nor cable used, VGA, DVI,hdmi, DP i can not see your near black screen at all. cold booted is the PC splash screen dead./? all bios screen dead and all BIOS works even with HDD missing. idle black is sleep mode, a USA law mandates that. iof we do not like sleep mode we disable it in power settings CP CP means control panel this must be your first PC ever? and all go to sleep ,go to walmart see them all in sleep mode now, yes, a USA law called Energy star laws. and all wake up on demand new , unmolested. wiggling the mouse or hammering the space bar ends sleep but not if (again) power settings has USB going to sleep too. why post lacking Pc makers name and OS.windows what gee vast persons on earth ugraded w7 top 10 and now this fails. due to , PC maker told you , no w10 support in this secret PC 4 decades of 100,000 models of PC I can no no guess blind./ Radeon hd 7770 card and 80watt card in fact, oops.????? is this real ATI/AMD card or any of the other 12 makers of cards. ??????????? no full card number told and guess what the watts matter. 250watts is smallest watt PSU, or more if PC is loaded out like mine with 2SSD and 4 SSD and 1DVD and 1 Blue ray and max ddr and more. Power is first after fit, and yours fits so power is next PSU watts and what the card needs let me see that. all hits on this card show it crosses the magic 75watt rule for PCi-2 power of 75watts, and card is 80watts and more dynamically so they maker of the card has a 6 pin 12vdc aux jack that can not be ignored or the card fails, so is that wired up? as it must? yup top rear of card 6 pin aux power in black , steathy that, hard to see at 1st glance but 80watt cards need it, that and even 300watts cards are sold. does your card have red fan. see what I mean buy 12 maker of cars all with AMD GPU. the cards all have tag called the SKU tag or full model told for GPU speed and vram sizes and more, lots more. https://search.brave.com/images?q=%20Radeon%20hd%207770%20card# I have boxes full of old GPU cards here, stored. some need 500watt more PSU to even begin any 3d mode. only the SKU matters, wiki SKU. and what PC this is and what PSU wattage and if said PSU has the 2 AUX CABLES WITH DUAL 6/8 Plugs, (PCI-12v) marked. if not we can do adapters easy. ask

so the PC mobo has and addin, PCI card sound"? 2004 PC mobo relic, now and 13yo to you. no card told. (fail)(buy only w7 allowed card if must) you did say CARD so means NOT ON-BOARD sound chip. relic P4 PC. mobo v1.0 mobo? this trash mobo uses EOL DOA, via chipsets, that do not allow w7 Integrated Realtek ALC662 audio CODEC chip this chip set is dead too, from maker realtek. if you knew that, and added a secret sound card. this mobo only does windows 200o to XP says so on page one at gigabytes this mobo. so w7 does not belong hear unless replacing every thing there that fails 1 by 1, , pain. ive done this vast times, for folks willing to. last xp driver is here for realtek https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/8VM533M-RZ-rev-10/support#support-dl-driver as a rule only this OEM maker PC can make there sound chips work (as a team of parts) not simple as many think, even has mixer chips and more, all custom to maker. yes cards work better, on this mobo the VIA chip and codec chip must work or sound will be dead. and is common this. lacking no vista driver up, ever/ this mobo has no SATA ports nor any PCI express card slots at all. and finding PCI (non express) cards that can run w7 can be hard. for sure now. yes possible, with careful searching specs of relic PCI cards. also the VIA chip dead makes The ethernet port dead too. and usb dead and IDE drives dead,vista up. never buy VIA chipped mobo. or pain is all there is. no drivers.

it is only a USB mouse and works on any pC really. w7 needs no special driver for this mouse ever, it uses PnP, plug and play and the internet must be active and working for PnP to work is it? not told that. your failed computer is all messed up with w7 even infected monza is w7, 2012 made (year) the usb ports are first not mouse the device manager must show all USB ports have good drivers, and you test them using a USB stick of thumbdrive memory to be sure they do work, and if does good or use USB keyboard to test usb ports all if all that works then the mouse is tried. and internet connected and the mouse to when connected must show up in device manager. and actually function/

talk to gigabyte.com is the cooler not from gigabytes is that it? so is this below? i guess you meant Model# GZ-FW1CA-AJS go back to air or upgrade to far better cooling this is not. cheap cooling is no good. will not last. also above is know for bad corrosion inside, rule #2 buy cooling only from makers that see spare parts for it. or is doomed. the manual shows no parts list for sure water level so needs new water tank I guess, why not ask maker for support no PC store sells parts for this custom case.(turn key is seems) or defeat that switch and just look at level at step 1 , before turned on. (that is what I would do, but sure back to AIR

the mobo is fully covered at Gigabyte.com we are not them more have 10,000 manuals here. at all this https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-G41MT-S2P-rev-13#ov its all there to read, 24/7 form 2010 to 2022 still. the audio may be dead on newer oS as audio chip maker went EOL Dead. w7 is max.

ok, a simple hardware question only. w10 could careless about PSU. (facts) mobo is micro atx size 24.4cm x 24.4cm not powering up has many causes, even simply stuck in sleep mode. (power on button held for 10seonds and released last is 1 cure. of about 20 causes (up to) GA-F2A78M-D3H (rev. 3.0)or rev. 4.0????? rev is on bottom left of mobo, normal tower case. no case told the PSU is called ATX and all work here 500 to 750watts 24 pin power is normal but CPU power uses 8 pin power plug PSU.marked ATX12v psu lacking 8 pin, can use 4 to 8 adpater. vast here work, in real ATX case not micro cases. https://www.newegg.com/p/pl?d=psu+atx&N=4131%20100007657%20600014006%20600479294&isdeptsrh=1&Order=1 from you manual . dead PC are all fans dead.> that is dead PC. the monitor must be good and connected the the VGA jack if using GPU card then it must connect to the monitor the BIOS screen must work or the PC is dead or GPU card is dead. strip the PC down ,any thing in the PC shorted will make PC dead. if strip down tests fail the PSU may be bad is its fan dead too? both power connectors most be connected above or PC will be dead.

gigabyte.com ask them only. the records are secret , them to you only based on serial number of the mobo. do not post serial numbers or risk losing your warranty. learn to go there, only.

That motherboard has 4 SATA 2.0 slots. Should work well. You said "hard drive" so I am assuming you do not mean Solid State drive (SSD) I am surprised you are using Windows 7 with that MB
