This is straight from the manufacturer's website. I would provide the URL, but it's ASP and requires user input. http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=VIA_PLE_133_5a&class=mb is for the motherboard that I'm searching for, but the driver should work with all MSI "VIA" 686 chipsets, I would assume. The website claims that the driver is for "all Windows".
The board I'm using is an MS-6368 VER:5 from MSI, in an AOpen-branded case.

After you get your new driver, you need to put it on your computer. On Windows, there's a tool called Device Manager that helps with this. It shows you all the parts of your computer and the drivers they use. To finish setting up the new driver, you'll probably need to turn your computer off and on again.
