Packard Bell Drivers, please help!

Last response: in Windows 95/98/ME

Okay so here's the story. I have a friend who is donating a Packard Bell computer (model 5951?) to a local school. Windows 98 SE is installed but there are issues with the motherboard drivers. I can't seem to find any for that particular model. When I google "Packard Bell drivers" I get a website based in the UK and they don't list the model number that I'm looking for. I would like to install all of the original drivers, but there aren't any CD's that came with the system. :(  I have a part# P296010203, which I tried to reference at the UK site, but it doesn't come back with any matching results.
I can't seem to find a manufacturer of the motherboard printed on the motherboard. I can see an "SiS 620" chip and a SiS 5595 chip. There is a Celeron chip (I think its socket 370, definately not Slot 1). There is 768MB of RAM, 4 PCI, 1 ISA (shared w/bottom PCI slot) on the motherboard. There is also onboard video, but not sure which one. If anyone has some information that I can use to get the drivers, I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

yeah no problem getting on the site I've used it several times. I'm just trying to figure out the motherboard manufacturer so I can get the drivers from it. I'm pretty thorough when looking these things up.

my guess is it's been out of production for a long time, those things are tough to find, usually by searching up some model # or even the BIOS id upon bootup should give you something back about the manufacturer...but it's tough
