Default Compaq EN Series

Hi, I was given a Compaq Deskpro, without disks. Presently, it has win98 on
it and I would like to wipe and reinstall 98 (I have my own 98 to put on
it). The problem is that the only info I can find on the comp is that it is
a Compaq Deskpro, EN Series, Model 0400h. I checked the Compaq website for
the drivers and there are many EN series listed, so I wouldn't know which
one to choose. Is there anywhere else on the computer that I can find the
info I need, or is there a way I can save the Compaq drivers already being
used (and where they would be) for use after the reinstall? TIA

I just checked there and there isn't a Compaq Diags option there, or
anything at all to do with Compaq. I am assuming someone prior to me had
already reinstalled win98. It still has the Compaq BIOS, but all it says in
there is that it is a Deskpro EN Series. Any other suggestions? Thanks

Run Compaq Diags for Windows from Control Panel. It will tell you.
