i have the above mentioned PC and want to set it up for using old Software (Videogame-Related, Xploder-Cartridge, which needs a LPT Port and Software is very fuzzy with Windows XP)....
Anyway, some Machine-Specs
Q965 Chipset
Core2Duo E6300
Custom HP Mainboard
1GB RAM (will Upgrade it if possible)
160Gb S-ata HDD
Integrated Video (Intel?)
Integrated Audio (Realtek ALC 262?)
integrated NIC (Intel 82566DM?)
I installed Windows 98SE, installed Chipset-Drivers for Q965 from Creopard, seems to work.
Directx 9.0c from the same Source Seems to work,too.
HP does Not provide Drivers directly for 98SE, so i have to fiddle Around, the VGA and NIC dont want to work, i have tried several drivers. After NIC-Driver Installation and Reboot Windows is not able to configure it, VGA is 640x480 with 16 Colors because i have no working driver and the Audio-driver will install but no device is there After reboot....
