Hi gang, it's been a while since I last posted but I need some direction here. I just received my new office laptop. It came configured with WinMe as the OS. It has some conflicts with some of our proprietary software so I need to re-install Win98se. My question is will I need to install Intel's i815e drivers. I have Win98se here at home running on my ASUS CUSL2 and I had to install the i815e .inf files here but I checked Dell's site for my Laptops drivers and there is no Intel files to be found when I search under Win98se and WinME. The Laptop system specs are:

P3-850 on Dell's motherboard with the Intel i815e chipset
256 MB SDRAM 1 module
ATi Mobility AGP4x 32mb video
LG 8x DVD/CDROM combo
20 GB Fujitsu ATA 66 harddrive
15" Ultra SXGA Display
Maestro ESS sound card
Xircom 10/100 NIC
LT V90 56K Win modem

Hoping someone has a suggestion. Thanks in advance.
