   Findout Mainboard, Chipset etc with Software?
  Hi,can you recommend (free) software that lets you find out what exact mainbord/chipset etc. you have, to be able to search for drivers on the net?to play older games which wont't run that good if at all on current computers,I bought a PII 400MHz desktop PC at ebay.So I put a win98 console mode startdisk with CD-R drivers into its fdd, copied my win98se install files from CD onto hdd for faster install and not having to insert the CD all the time when someting new is installed...this all worked and I installed my win98se. But after everything was installed, I would not have a CD-R drive displayed in explorer.Windows device manager shows an exclamation mark next to second IDE controller and says it's not working... but the drive worked with start floppy disk...hrrrrm.Also the PS/2 mouse interface has an exclamation mark.There is no resource conflict on these devices.Well the thing came without any drivers... so perhaps original mainbord drivers might help...if I knew what I have to look for lol.Thanks in advance,unshaven   
  I would try SiSandra.  I don't know if it'll work for your setup, but it does more than what I need, even on the free version.   ;  google for CPU-Z   ;Quote:Original post by templewulfI would try SiSandra.

I've yet to find a box that it didn't work 100% on.
