I can't find my chipset drivers in device manager, do I just not have them installed? I'm on an Intel CPU.

You're fine, Intel chipsets are enumerated by function, not as a separate component. You can use Devices by Driver if you want to see the details.

Dell A12 is a BIOS version. You need something like CPU-Z to read the motherboard vendor info.

What am I looking for exactly in devices by driver?
I still can't see it.

What model system?
If I'm correctly understanding what model system is, it's a Dell Inspiron 14R 5437
