Hi Mark.
What EXACTLY do you want/need?
I've had one of those, don't have it any more, but do still have the
all the drivers, manual, more.
The modem is a PCTel, the chip is on the motherboard, not the modem
riser. The chip on the rev 1.2 board i had was a PCT789T, though it
could easily be a slightly earlier or later PCTel chip. There are a
ton of winmodems around with PCTel chipsets, many of them take the
same drivers. Here's a page to start with,
http://www.pctel.com/consumer_faq.htm but IMHO, you're better off
with just about any other modem, especially if the processor is less
than a PII300. If I remember correctly, there is some issue where the
modem won't work if you disable the sound, or vice-cersa, I can't
remember.
The sound is also an onboard chip, CMI 8338 chip, may say "PCI Sound
Pro HT8338A" on it. You can (or used to be able to) get that driver
from CMI's website, I don't have a link handy.
The video is integrated into the SIS 620/5595 chipset, the driver is
(at least was) offered along with the chipset drivers from the SIS
website, http://www.sis.com.tw/ Don't expect much from the video,
again you're better off with a video card, but there's stil a problem,
memory bandwidth is really limited on those motherboards, and without
an AGP slot, any PCI video card will be starving for data.
Then there's the Audio Rack software, not really needed, but came with
the motherboard originally, there should be a link to it somewhere on
the site mentioned below.
This is the catch-all PCChips Lottery site, certainly worth a look:

If you're not in a hurry for the drivers +, email me your address,
I'll mail you out a CD, has ~ 80MB of stuff, or I could email a very
few files.
