    Hello,
    I have recently built my own pc and installed win98se onto it. I am not sure whether my bios settings are correct. Could some one please advise? Also in system information it is saying that a PCI system management bus is an unknown device and I cannot update drivers from the Win 98se cd or floppy. I dont have a very good knowledge on bios workings and will need replies very simple. Any info will be much appreciated. thankyou.

    Everything looks ok there, you probably need to say Yes for the Plug and Play OS option. As far as the PCI System manangement bus, that is probably needing a driver for your motherboards chipset. Go to:
    http://support.intel.com/support/chipsets/inf/
    The drivers are there as well as a utility to identify your chipset if needed though yours should be a 865 chipset.
