General question

I purchased a used motherboard today that was out of box and didnt include any accessories (intel p55 WG model). Are there any things that typically come with motherboards that I would need to get.

The 'biggie' is an I/O shield, and SATA cables are cheap. Download the drivers from Intel {verify your MOBO with link} http://www.intel.com/products/desktop/motherboards/DP55WG/DP55WG-overview.htm?wapkw=(DP55WG)

Intel 'might' sell you an I/O shield. Is the I/O shield missing??

Thanks for the link that is indeed the motherboard. There is no I/O shield
