Windows 98, I FORGET

[practor]

My wife came home with a old 333mhz celeron running 98. Her office use this thing for APR data in the real estate industry. On boot up it was missing some system 32 files etc so I dban the system and type "autonuke"

Anyways after reformat with the oridgional 98 cd with key, all is good. BUT for the life of me I forget how to make OS connect to the net.

I'm on cable here and her work is ADSL. The power house has a ethernet card and in "device manger" the card need drivers. I dont have the cd for that.


Umm what would you do please? Be nice and before you say XP! forget it.. This has a 4 gig HDD

you need to install the drivers, 1st off, of course, then networking is simple as pie.

You will need to figure out the network card and then download drivers. Then you can either burn them to cd or get them copied to a floppy.

On the page linked below, there is another link to download a universal win98 SE usb driver. If you burn this to a cd and install it to the system, then you can bring future drivers in via a memory stick

USB for win98

SIW can probably detect your card for you:
