Setup Questions for AMD 761 mobo- Gigabyte GA7DX

[sabrownfl]

I have never set up a AMD chipset based board before, much less one with a combo AMD/VIA chipset and DDR. Is there anything special I need to know before I get started? In other words, are there any special drivers I need to install after Win98se installation before I begin setting up hardware and software?

Am building a system for a friend, this is the configuration:
AMD t-bird 1ghz C (266 fsb)
Gigabyte GA7DX mobo
256 meg Crucial PC2100 DDR ram (1 stick)
40GB WD hard drive ata 100
Plextor CD Burner
Toshiba 16x DVD
GeForce 2MX video (Gigabyte I think)
Using mobo onboard sound at first build until he decides on audio
Alpha pa6035 HSF
generic floppy and various parts

Any help appreciated.

Just install the 4 in 1 drivers and you should be just fine.

Thanks a bunch!

I suppose I should steer him clear of the SBLive until the 686B chipset issue is clarified. Personally, I like the Guillemot XP anyway!

Thanks again,
