I tend to agree that it must be a hardware problem.
I just got a reply from the driver seller on ebay and
he said that some of the files are compressed so even if I could use the drivers
I could not load them on the laptop because they have to be decompressed
The BIOS I don't know how to check if it's corrupted or not and I am not even sure
if it's worth trying.
By the time I find the right upgrade and figure out how to do it I could just by
another motherboard and hopefully be done with it I just hope I don't pick up another
bad one.
