Download, install and run Belarc advisor:
http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html
This is an established and accurate utility for performing
a full and detailed audit of your laptops hardware
and software. From the results you will be able to identify
your laptops on-board audio chipset and associated drivers.
As it is a laptop it will invariably be the Realtek chip:
http://www.realtek.com/
But use Belarc advisor to confirm it is Realtek.
If it is Realtek, and as it's a laptop and win98 then it
will be the AC'97 driver/codec pack.
http://www.realtek.com/downloads/downloadsCheck.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=23&PFid=23&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false
The download will be a zip file, which when unzipped
creates a folder, open it and locate the setup.exe
double-click the setup.exe and it will install and configure
your laptops audio.
But use Belarc to confirm it is a Realtek chipset first.

Try the other poster's suggestion with Belarc Advisor. However when I use
Google Chrome it asks if i would like to translate the page and it seemed
to do a good job.

I tried it on the Win98 I got this RUNDLL32..exe error

1. *double* check the connections for the audio jacks. Beleive it or not
this *is* the most common cause of the sound not working.
2. Put a commercial music CD in the drive and see if you hear music.
3. If you don't, your sound card is dead
4. Look in device manager (right-click my computer, left click
properties and then the tab marked "Device Manager")
5. In device manager do you have any yellow or red circles? If so, you
have device driver problems
6. *Try* opening up add/remove programs, and uninstalling *all* of
multimedia, then check marking it and clicking apply to re-install it.
7. If you get 5. Are you using the Operating system installed from the
CD's you originally got from NEC or are you using something else?
8. If none of this works, Try removing *all* unknown and unidentified devices
*in* *safe* *mode* along with *everything* under multimedia and restarting.
9. There *is* another thing that will work after this, but it is the single
most complicated fix there is. Then there's just reinstalling 98. Not a bad
thing to do ever year or so as windows *will* get corrupted in that time.

Exactly why I'm recommending the OP completely ignore anything you post.

No, I ignored the trolls. There's a difference. If however the OP had
asked, that would be completely different.
I notice you didn't provide a message id however. So that means you were
lying your ass off so you would *seem* to have credibility.

Not in the way I explained it. *If* you *actually* think otherwise, you
simply don't know what you're talking about.

No, on the contrary, people have repeatedly told you to desist in your
similar postings here. That makes *you* undeniably and without doubt
nothing more than a troll. Whether you've simply lost your marbles or
actually have a beef - that for some reason you can't state - I could
care less. The result is the same: you serve *absolutely* no useful
purpose here.

At what stage do you get the RUNDLL32 error - installing Belarc or
running Belarc?
RUNDLL32.exe is a windows process:
http://www.neuber.com/taskmanager/process/rundll32.exe.html
In the instance of an aged laptop running Win98 it is probably
an error caused by corruption of a no longer supported operating
system.
There are online fixes you might try:
http://ezinearticles.com/?How-to-Fix-Rundll32.exe?&id=913723
http://www.rundll32exe.com/
You can attempt to identify if it is a virus:
http://techsalsa.com/process-information-what-is-rundll32exe/
If you managed to install Belarc Advisor but error occurs when
trying to run Belarc's audit, then just temporarily disable the process:
Goto: Start>Run,
type: msconfig
Task manager appears, click the Processes Tab
UNtick RUNDLL32
Click Apply then OK
Run Belarc advisor.
But If error occurs when attempting to Install Belarc then
the error has to be fixed first - before installing anything!
I checked NEC's global support site:
http://support.necam.com/mobilesolutions/hardware/notebooks/
They do not list any model with any inkling of similarity to
the model name/number you supplied.
So I did a search on the model number LAVIE S LS46H/2
the results produced that the model name is LaVie and the
model number you supplied was preintsalled with 98/NT/2000
and was soon abandoned and no support is available, not even
a user guide in pdf? http://www.pdfxp.com/nec-lavie-pdf.html
I checked batterymart and that is one model they do not list
replacement batteries for? NEC would like to forget that model?
It appears it was only sold in oriental markets, is of very poor/
low specification and production was soon stopped.
The common problem in Oriental forums is cheap/crap mobo
and low/problematic memory.
RUNDLL32 errors could be caused by RAM problems. but if
that was cause in your case you'd be getting many other probs too?
It isn't worth the effort.
