Then, knowing the brand and model of the various extra items, track down drivers from there. Everest Free (up to date versions sold on the lavalys.com web site) http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.html For built-in sound ("Multimedia Audio Controller"), the Dell link above is definitely the best source. Those driver downloads tend to be a bit custom in nature, and there isn't a single Analog Devices driver that handles everything. So tracking down built-in sound can be a pain, and using the Dell link is the easiest alternative. But for other things that take the form of "add-in" cards, like if there was an ATI video card in a video card slot, then going to the ATI site might give you a driver. Video can also be built-in, but if you can figure out the make and model of the chipset on the motherboard, then the chipset maker may have some nice drivers for the hardware. Dell may have a lot of the stuff, if you can go through their list and figure out what file you should be downloading and using. For the modem, "PCI modem" doesn't mean anything to us, and there are a gazillion brands/models of modems out there. The Dell list may be the best source for that one as well. Knowing and understanding just what hardware is in the computer, is still important, as the Dell list may contain more drivers than there is hardware in your computer. If the computer had some optional hardware, drivers for it may be in the Dell list. So the user still needs to know what is inside the computer, to intelligently select drivers to try.

Go to their website and then select Support. When prompted, put in your system's Service Tag (it's on a label on the case somewhere). You will be presented, at that point, with just about EVERYTHING you could need in terms of downloads, drivers, and support for your computer.
