" rel="nofollow - I am trying to download drivers for an A785GM-LE motherboard for WinXP from ASROCK's site. They download just fine, but when I try to unzip them, they request passwords.
Can anyone help?

" rel="nofollow - I just downloaded every windows XP driver for the A785GM-LE and none of them asked for a password. What are you using to extract the files? I'm using WinRAR but 7-Zip can be used too since it's a free open source program with no nag screens. Maybe the extracting program you are using is trying to extort money from you by asking for a password, or you are infected with a virus that is encrypting your files.

Thanks for the suggestion. I haven't used Winrar in a decade and forgot about it. I even found it on this computer. I originally just double-clicked on the Zip file and told it to extract all files. So I used whatever comes with XP SP3. Again, thanks.
