On the brink of madness...
I have a problem that quite frankly baffles me, so I might not tell it right
since I have no clue what is actually going on. I built myself a new PC: Asus P5GD1 motherboard (Intel 915P chipset) 2 WD harddisks, a NEC dvd/cd rw Nvidia GeForce 6200 video card (PCIx) Hauppauge WinTV Go! TV card I installed W98se on it. All components' manufacturers claim their component is supported in W98se, and I have looked up all appropriate drivers. The problem is that the drivers will not install. When I run the setup program of the chipset (supplied by Intel) I get the error message that no Intel chipset is found on my pc. It then fails to install any component. Even manual installation of the .inf files by using the -a -a switch on the setup program, and then forcing the computer to accept from me it has hardware that needs these drivers, results in no shown components in the Device Manager after reboot. They just won't install. Again, a highly similar problem when installing my videocard. I run the setup program, and it runs until it aborts with an error message saying I don't have a Nvidia card. I'm therefore stuck in crappy VGA. What is going on? And more importantly, what can I do about it? Many thanks in advance. |
