My best hope is to just try a bunch of others drivers in the hopes one will work. No the notebook was never intended to run Windows 98 which is why Dell only offers the 2000/XP drivers. The generic low rez built in Windows default driver has the machine working in 16 colors 640x480 rez. Update: No the notebook was never intended to run Windows 98 which is why Dell only offers the 2000/XP drivers. There are a lot of old programs which will not run on XP that I want to use it for (it's not for internet connectivity so security is not an issue).
The Windows XP/2000 driver from Dell refuses to install on Win98 OS. Can anyone either tell me where I can find a video driver for the ATI Radeon X300 which is built into the Dell Latitude D610 which will work for Windows 98 or even point me to where I can get an answer to a technical question like this if not here. I can't find a video driver that will work with it. However, after installing a DVD-ROM drive, I was able to re-install Windows 2000 Professional and the basic drivers needed to make the machine go. Unfortunately, the DVD-ROM/CD-RW combi drive which was in the system broke down due to the CD mounting bracket on the spindle becoming detached. I have 4 missing drivers one of them been the network adaptor so I cannot connect to the internet to update any drivers. I have a dell latitude c610 laptop that I formatted and did a fresh install of windows 7 home edition.
