Hello and welcome subasicas mate this is a very old board and it doesn't list Windows 7 as one of the operating systems for downloading drivers and such. http://support.asus.com/download.aspx?SLanguage=en&p=1&s=15&m=P4P800S-X&os=&hashedid=F1OF21gND5YsZhB1

Frankly I am suprised you even got that far as you have only got 1GB RAM and that is itself only DDR (1) you need at least 2GB RAM minimum and for Ultimate 1GB would be so tiny I doubt it would even boot.

Has someone sold you this machine telling you it is a good one because if they have then that is not fair to you as quite honestly it is a dinosaur I am sorry to tell you. I really do think that you should get your money back mate and find something that is going to be of use to you as it is barely adequate to run XP to be brutally honest.
