Okay, I'll field this one...

You don't/can't "format" a motherboard. The master boot record is on your hard drive, your hard drive is what's formated.


is there any drivers i would need to reinstall for the M.B.R and M.B and would i also have to reinstall windows os.
No you don't need drivers for your MBR it's just something Windows puts there so your computer can boot. There are drivers for your motherboard. And yes, if you format your hard drive is wiped, everything stored on it would have to be reinstalled including your OS.


also thoes anyone know where i could get tge latest mb/chipset drivers for an ASUS A7V333 MB.
You can get them from <A HREF="http://www.asus.com" target="_new">ASUS's web site</A> <A HREF="http://www.asus.com/support/download/item.aspx?ModelName=A7V333" target="_new"><b>HERE</b></A>. You can probably find some on Via's web site also.
