well..in device manager you'll be able to see if there are any devices missing drivers....can you go to windows help from the start menu and type in device manager (sorry i'm not on 98 and haven't been in quite some time)

To get to device manager in 98/SE, click on 'Start,' 'Control Panel,' 'Device Manager' or by right-clicking 'My Computer,' selecting 'Properties' and navigating to the 'Device Manager' tab at the top.
There are a couple other great tools that'll tell you everything you could ever want to know (maybe even things you didn't care to know) about your computer. The first is the now discontinued Everest Home Edition and the other is Belarc Advisor. Both are free and extremely useful tools to keep on hand.
After finding out what you have by means of audio, as suggested by dsennette, be sure to check the manufacturer's site for driver downloads.
Best of luck,

Howdy...again...
Download, install, and run Everest on the machine.
Click the "Report" icon on the toolbar and generate a report in HTML format. You should be able to do this with the default settings.
Click the "Save to file" icon on the toolbar and save the report to the desktop.
Send me the report via e-mail. I will PM you with the address.

Yep, I got it.
The only things it doesn't give me is the model number and serial number...unfortunately, that's how Gateway searches for the specific drivers. Can you please post that info for me?
