For graphics, LAN, sound and your motherboard's southbridge you need the device and vendor IDs. You can find those in the device manager under Windows, or by some creative searching with google. Then type them into the search box to find what other people have done.

 

For your Pentium 4 you need to use the Voodoo 9.5.0 Kernel.

 

You can also try just typing in your motherboard make and model in the search and see what you can come up with.

 

If you're completely lost and have no idea what you're doing it's a good idea to consult the wiki and the sticky posts in the various sub forums here.

 

Also go here and have a look around the various topics:

If the search box doesn't work, use this:
