I was looking forma ZyXEL drivers, but the supporto server was in maintenance and I couldn't search them

@Dibya I could run Vista x86 on my HP 15-g065nl, which is based on AMD A8-6410 APU with Radeon R5. I downloaded official HP Catalyst drivers, took Win7 x86 INFs and renamed all NT6.1 sections in NT6.0 and manually selected drivers from Device Manager. I did that with all AMD drivers, the only that didn't work was the internal TPM. No bugs, no crashes, no BSoDs. XP refused to start installing because I couldn't switch to IDE legacy mode on that limited BIOS. If it can help, there are a bunch of ASRock mobos for AMD platform (FM2+ and AM1) that have XP drivers for APU integrated Radeon R3/4/5/6/7 GPUs. Maybe, it is possible to port them for other chips. P.S.: I used Vista for a couple of weeks, just for fun!!

Now, I tried a Win2k dual-boot and the RTL8193 runs fine. PCI bus is OK. ISA bus is also OK: sound card plays fine (no problems on MIDI, WaveTable, Line In, CD In, Outputs). I'll try the USB ZyXEL: on the attached disk there are only NT drivers and utilities, from 2K to 7. On the side of the box, "Compatible with Windows 98SE/ME/2000/XP/Vista/7". I'll search the web for the right files for 9x. At this point, I think I have a corrupted version of NDIS on my Win98 setup disk. It sounds weird, because my old Latitude is was OK, my ThinkPad is OK and the VM on my main desktop is OK and I used the same disk.

I use Win10 since the first release. Originally upgraded from Win8.1 on my laptop, it was an awful crap. My A8-6410 APU has never been used so bad. Win7 ran extremely well, Win8.1 worked nice, but I hate that f*****g Modern UI. Win10 was very very very slow in everything. The browser was bad, the media player suite was bad, software that ran well on 7 or 8.1 was bad on 10. A week later, I was setting up drivers on Win7. Now, I have my brand new computer, based on FX-8320e, R7 360, Kingston 120GB SSD, 8GB RAM 1866MHz. I read about the Anniversary Update, I wanted to try. Downloaded, set up: it currently works way better than the original build, so I tried it on the laptop. It is still quite a crap, but it really works fine. Just had a BSoD, while recovering from standby, bad usbhub.sys was the cause. If you want a reliable OS, stick to Win7. If you like Metro/Modern UI, Win8.1 is nearly identical to 7, the only difference is the interface. If you want an updated OS, Win10 is the best choice. In work environment, 10 is the worst OS. I personally find it too multimedia-friendly, at home is quite a good system.

I've personally put Win98 on an IBM ThinkPad T42. Things that were working: - Intel 855PM Chipset - Intel Pentium M 745 CPU (stepping numbers says it is a Pentium 3 and even Linux in old flavours detect it as a Pentium 3) - ATi Mobility Radeon 7500 - Intel PRO/1000 MT Gigabit Mobile Ethernet Adapter - SoundMAX AC'97 Sound Chip - IBM Integrated Bluetooth III - IBM 56k Modem - IBM Fast Infrared - Texas Instruments PCMCIA Slots Things that weren't working: - Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG WLAN Adapter (Intel never released a 9x driver for such card) My laptop was running flawlessy Win98SE on 768MB DDR with no VCache or paging tweaks.

Hi! I've just built a Win98 macchine, based on a MS6163 motherboard, a Coppermine Celeron 1000MHz on slotket, 128MB of RAM, nVidia GeForce4 MX440 GPU, SoundBlaster AWE64 sound card. I mainly use this machine with Impulse Tracker and Audacity and I usually download IT, MOD, S3M, WAV and MP3 files from a FTP server on the Web. This PC can't be connected via Ethernet to the router because is located in a different room, so I'd like to install a WLAN card. I round many cards: - PCI Atheros AR5005GS: can't find Win9x drivers - PCI Intellinet Wireless G Network Adapter (Ralink RT2560 chip): set up driver and utility, but in Device Manager shows a Code 10 error and the utility can't find the card. Tried many versions, none worked. - USB ZyXEL G-202: on attached disk, there wasn't 9x driver, but the box and the user guide say that it is fully compatible with 98SE and ME. ZyXEL website provides driver, but no Wireless utility. Code 10 in Device Manager. - PCI USRobotics Wireless G Turbo Adapter: found driver and utility, Code 10. No adapter worked. I did a last try: RTL8193 Fast Ethernet PCI card. Code 10, Realtek diag tool doesn't detect the card. Then, Kingston KNE20BT 10BaseT ISA card, Code 10. Same thing with RTL8026AS ISA Adapter. The same 98 setup disk has been used on my old Latuitude XPi P133ST. Network stuff is OK and I used a PCMCIA Fast Ethernet card, until the CPU stopped working. What can I do? Thanks in adavance, Enrico
