I have installed window 98 on a Dell Dimension 2400 with a foxconn IS-36 motherboard and need the driver. I am having problems finding any drivers since this system's recommended OS is XP or Vista. Does this motherboard support win98?

Yes it supports 98. 98 have insufficient driver packages built-in the OS so your MB didn't find the right driver on the OS DB whereas xp have most of the driver packages built-in on the OS

Dell dimension 2400 network adapter driver

The Dell Dimension 2400 drivers are available here: http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/product/dimension-2400 . Use another computer to visit the site and make sure that Microsoft XP shows in the OS search drop down. Expand the section labeled Network. The wired network adapter is a Broadcom 4401. The direct link to the latest driver (V. 3.63 released 8/5/2003) page is http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriverDetails/Product/dimension-2400?driverId=R64645&osCode=WW1&fileId=2731129724&languageCode=en&categoryId=NI .

A more recent driver for XP is available from Broadcom at: http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/4401.php . Select the driver for the 32-bit version for XP.

I hope this helps.

After a virus infected my Dell dimension 2350 (XP), I replaced the hard drive with one running Windows 7. After increasing my RAM, I still have some serious resolution problems on my Samsung 172N moni

Hey Tim,.
Once you installed Windows 7 onto the hard drive you would need to have installed the drivers. The one driver that is needed for resolution is the video card.You can right click on the desktop and then choose screen ressolution to see if you can change the resolution. Unfortunately, Dell does not have any Windows 7 drivers for the Dimension 2350 system.

Thank You,

My dell MTC2 does not have sound at all. Are the audio drivers available online at no charge? Also, it does not recognize dvd's when I put them in. It just says to insert dvd.

Hello,

Yes the drivers are available for dell pcs online. You don't have to pay to download drivers. I can give you the download link provided you give me the correct model no. of this pc. I believe you have given me a serial code? Is this a Dell Dimension 2400 model? As for the dvd problem its a problem with the windows operating system you will have to do a repair installation of windows using the disc.

Hope that helps!

Thank you.

Ethernet driver needed

The beauty of Dell is you can use the service tag to find exact configurations. Since I didn't have that I did find 2400 series drivers at http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&ServiceTag=&SystemID=DIM_PNT_P4_CEL_2400&os=WW1&osl=en&catid=&impid=

This may give you the items you need, Dload to a jump drive and then move to the PC and allow PC to extract them then follow the add hardware wizard or update driver from hardware listing. The drivers may also include their own setup file.
