Default New Hardware Found Problem

I've re-installed Win98 on a neighbours PC. I've updated it Ok so no
critical, recommended or drivers outstanding (except 34 unwanted language
menu's).

I'm having a couple of problems on boot when new hardware is found

Firstly - Intel Firmware Hub. I can't locate a driver (?) for this on CD
or elsewhere.

The PC is circa 1999; a Packard Bell, model PB9533 (can't find this on their
site), using Intel 810e Chipset - 82810E memory controller, 82801AA I/O
controller and 82810 intregrated graphics controller.

Secondly - PCI card. Other than PCI LAN card there are none. The LAN card
is installed and working fine. There is a modem card in the modem riser slot
which I assume it may be refering too. Device manger doesn't show a modem as
being installed but despite finding modem driver (PC Tel HSP56 MR) this is
not recognised

Any help greatly appreciated.

For #1, download the Intel Chipset driver package:

That may or may not help with #2, but you definitely want to try this one
before trying to resolve the modem problem.

Richard,

Thanks for response. I had done this to no avail but there had been a
slight hithch with it. Downloaded and Installed Intel Security Driver then
Iistalled Intel Firmware Hub. That problem now gone. Thanks

Left with "PCI Card" found. This occurs even when LAN card and modem
removed i.e no physical card installed. LAN is OK. Now the modem is not a
PCI modem but an AMR/CNR (not sure which) card. I'm not sure how Device
Manager shows this. There is not a "Modem" device type shown. Perhaps this
is shown as a "system device". Revieing this, the intel firmware hub, PCI
bridge, SMBus Ctl, LPC ctl and graphic ctl are there. If there's something
missing I wouldn't know.

Not sure what to do next.

The modem will probably show up as a "PCI" device even though it's plugged
into the mini-slot instead of a standard PCI slot. The only ways to resolve
that issue will be to either get the correct drivers for the modem, or
uninstall/disable the modem.
