I have a question about Stop
Windows from Detecting Devices:
On my pc Windows 98 SE stops every boot up claiming to have found new hardware,
the PCI Bus. But this is already installed and working properly. Following the dialog
boxes until I can finally resulting in a yellow question mark for Other
in the Device Manager. How can I get over this hurdle?

You can find out what it thinks it is with these links.
(note the 3 spaces)
Select 'OK', or press enter and a 'PCI.txt' icon will appear on the Desktop.
This is an exported (copy) registry key.
Select the 'PCI.txt' icon to open it with Notepad.
View the registry entries that appear in each of the registry subkeys beneath:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Enum\PCI
Check all "Class"= registry entries for the data value of "Unknown".
Locate the Vendor and Device ID's.....
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Enum\PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3058&SUBSYS_89081509&REV_50\BUS_00&DEV_07&FUNC_05]
VendorID↑ DeviceID↑
Then use this information at the 'PCI Vendor and Device Lists' link above.
