motherboard manufacturer.... please. Also, all devices need to be listed. Sounds like you may need to head over to the manufacturer's website and download the latest Motherboard drivers.

If you haven't added any new devices and all are working well, then you need to head over to Dell and download the latest motherboard drivers.

Try going to windowsupdate and after it scans see if any thing comes up under the hardware tab. A lot of times certain mobo drivers, onboard cards, etc. are not included in the default windows package, but a windows update will find the right ones.

Esp. with Win.98. That OS doesn't come with any of the latest chipset drivers.
