Modem

[N11xxy]

In need of some help, friend asked me to remove windows 3.11 and instal windows 98, i have done this when it booted up it found the modem but need to find the drivers and none on the windows98 disc seem to be compatable. Any ideas how to find out what the modem is so i can get the drivers?...will i need to take the cover off? its quite an old Dell PC. Any help will be wonderful. thanbks

Try:

or

http://www.dell.com

(you'll have to create an account)

OR...

If these options yield no results...is the modem onboard or is it a seperate card? (ISA or PCI...possibly ISA if the PC is as old as you say). In either case you'll have to take the case off to see 1.) which MOBO you have (if it's a DELL Mobo try their site again for modem info) or 2.) if the modem's a card, check to see manufacturer's name and visit their site.
