Device Manager Empty

Have a Win 98 box that seems to have lost all of its drivers, etc. If you open up device manager and view devices by type, the only thing listed is Network Adapters and System Devices, which contains Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (with yellow exclamation), Processor Support, and System Board. Other than those 2 categories and thier sub categories, there is absolutely nothing listed.

Any ideas?

Thanks


Jeff

Hi Jeff, Try a re-install of Windoze 98. You lose nothing but may get the problem fixed. You do pick up some of Windoze's junk, but you can dump that. Luck, Jim
