Hi, I was given a Compaq Deskpro, without disks. Presently, it has win98 on
it and I would like to wipe and reinstall 98 (I have my own 98 to put on
it). The problem is that the only info I can find on the comp is that it is
a Compaq Deskpro, EN Series, Model 0400h. I checked the Compaq website for
the drivers and there are many EN series listed, so I wouldn't know which
one to choose. Is there anywhere else on the computer that I can find the
info I need, or is there a way I can save the Compaq drivers already being
used (and where they would be) for use after the reinstall? TIA

Run Compaq Diags for Windows from Control Panel. It will tell you.

I just checked there and there isn't a Compaq Diags option there, or
anything at all to do with Compaq. I am assuming someone prior to me had
already reinstalled win98. It still has the Compaq BIOS, but all it says in
there is that it is a Deskpro EN Series. Any other suggestions? Thanks
