Happy Thanksgiving!

On a Presario 7470 I'm rebuilding -- put in a new hard drive and installed Win2K Pro. Was able to find drivers online for everything. Now under Device Manager, I'm getting a question mark icon by 'PCI Device'. I have 2 PCI devices -- a network card and a 56K modem, all registered correctly within Windows and clearly identified in Device Manager. No daughtercard or riser inside, so I'm assuming this must be some type of chipset issue but welcome all thoughts, suggestions and feedback.

I can work around this but the thought that I have an unregistered piece of hardware really bugs me :)

Thanks in advance.

Yup its a via chipset, www.viaarena.com on the left, click drivers, download the latest hyperion drivers - what used to be call the 4 in 1's

Bob,

I am about to do the same to a 7470 (a rebuild) and I was wondering if you wouldn't mind sharing with me the drivers you found for Windows 2000 and the 7470 PC? Thanks very much.
