Some Suggestions:
1. Download each new driver to a separate floppy -- video, audio, chipset, printer, etc. 2. Download latest BIOS upgrade and flash from DOS if necessary 3. Install Windows 4. After the install, feed in the driver disks as the Hardware Wizard prompts for them 5. If the VIA drivers have a separate install routine, run that 6. Install Windows updates, security patches, etc from MS website 7. Install any other hardware required -- printer, scanner, etc. Some Links: How to Install Windows 98: Helpful Tips and Suggestions How to Reinstall Windows 98 How to Install Windows 98 on a Computer with No Operating System Secret Win95, Win98, and Win98SE setup command line switches Microsoft Windows Update Home Page Troubleshooting Windows 98 Startup Problems Microsoft Troubleshooters Windows 95/98/Me: How to Install or Change a Video Driver Top Articles for Windows 98 How to Use the Fdisk Tool and the Format Tool to Partition or Repartition a Hard Disk How to Troubleshoot Using the Msconfig Utility with Windows 98 ------------------ "I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." -- Charles Babbage, mathematician, computer pioneer, analytical engine designer (1791-1871) -- (Question: 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?')
