I picked up an old Tekram P5M4-B (with a 500mhz K6-2) which is based on the Via MVP4 chipset. I plan on installing Windows XP. Would you reccomend loading the latest 4in1's or going with one of the older sets? Also, with XP do I even need the 4in1's?

Thanks for any help :D

XP has built-in driver support for VIA chipsets,however it`s older then the latest version which`re 4.46,I would download and install lastest drivers( VIA 4.46 Hyperion) by default XP will only install the latest VIA AGP driver and update the INF files.

Btw VIA changed the name of 4-in-1 drivers to Hyperion now.

All 4-in-1's are backward compatible.
I would just let XP install it's own (4.3x) and let 'er rip.
If you encounter any problems, merely download the latest ones and try them.

Good luck.
