Question Looking for drivers for Dell dimension 2400 for windows 3.1

[thatpcgamer1903]

Hello, so I saw a video on YouTube where this guy was able to install windows 3.1 on the Dell dimension 2400. I know it can run it because I saw the video of him running it. I need, chipset drivers, graphics drivers, sound drivers and networking drivers for the dell dimension 2400. Anybody got any links or drivers for the machine?

The 2400 never had Windows 3.x drivers officially available being a Windows XP machine when released. You're pretty much on your own to track down any drivers that may still exist today.

Having had a couple of 2400's....why?
What will you do with this? Be it WinXP, or Win 3.1?

(hopefully your caps haven't deteriorated)

Dells official drivers BUT up to you to figure out if you can make any use of them on Windows 3.1

Win 3.1 may not need any storage drivers because it can fall back to 16-bit MS-DOS compatibility mode for those and just let the BIOS handle it. As for 845 graphics and AC97 sound drivers, not a chance. But you do have 32-bit PCI slots for whatever Win 3.1 compatible GPU and sound card you'd like to install.

Y'all think the 2400 sucked, I had a 2300 which was the same except with SDR instead of single-channel DDR. Which was especially bad for a P4.
