dimension 2400 resource cd

I just purchased a refurbished dimension 2400, and have loaded Windows ME on it. When looking at system resources, most of the PCI drivers are missing. The machine did not come with a resource cd. Are these available online to download?

    I had seen that, Jesse,

    however, I do not see any drivers for the PCI items ... is there a special place for them?

    deaconbill,

    What pci drivers do you need? What are the pci components do you have in your computer?

    the 2 that are showing up missing are pci ethernet controller and pci communication device ...
     
    sorry  ... it  is device rather than controller

    deaconbill,
     
    Click the link below to download the pci communication device or modem driver for your system.
     
     
    Here is the link for the ethernet controller or on board network card driver.

    THanks, Hesse ... the network driver wors fine ... the modem doesn't ... says the drivers are only for 2000 and xp ... but that is not a big deal.

     

    The display adapter shows up as standard vga ... when I search for new equip nothing shows .... is there another download for the display adapter under ME?

    deaconbill,

    I cannot find a display driver for this system that is running Windows ME. Did this system ship with WinXP? If so, then you may not find an WinME driver.

    the system did not ship with any operating system ... but p[erhaps that is the problem if it should have xp ... I will give that a try.

     

    thanks for all of your assistance
