Here's what I know about it:

Specs:

RAM: 1GB DDR2 @ 533MHz 4-4-4-12
HDD: 60GB
GPU: intel i945
Chipset: i945GSE
Mobo: HP 361A

Any ideas?

Thanks guys :cool:

Are you 100% that the HDD is 60gb?

This is a fun game! :roll:

A picture would be awesome. Many guesses but I can't be 100%.

Have you tried to use Everest for any clues?

No stickers for the model on the bottom? (its irrelevant anyway; I'm assuming you looked there :D )

What is the screen size? What was the version of windows that came installed on it (Version, bit, Service pack; please)

In my experience windows 7 should get everything up and running by default drivers. Usually what I lack when I get in is the wireless driver.

When I put Win7 on my netbook the only driver it needed for me to DL myself was the webcam I think.
