Win98SE drivers on Intel D915GEV mobo

    I am running Win98SE, (for nostalgic reasons), on an Intel D915GEV mobo with 10GB HD.

    The mobo has onboard sound and graphics. However, Intel only list a BIOS update and Chipset drivers for Win98SE on this mobo. They do not show any drivers for sound or graphics.

    Can anyone suggest drivers that would work with this mobo to utilise onboard graphics and sound as opposed to using dedicated graphics and sound cards.

    Also I am unable to connect to the Internet using an ADSL2 modem at 100kb/sec theoretical max. Would this be too much for Win98?

    Any links would be helpful, but it would have to be specific to this mobo.

    I'm also running XP Home on a 2nd SATA HD in the same machine and have no probs with onboard graphics and sound. Thanks.

    They are all available, but they have been turned over to Driver Guide and other such driver places where you have to pay a fee.
    Microsoft pretty much forced all the big corporations to stop providing paid support for any of their old Windows Machines...
    You are going to average about $8.00 per driver, after some careful Gurgle searching.
