I just got a CF-50 Toughbook and I have it setup to dual boot between Windows 98SE and XP (using Boot Magic) I have all the needed XP drivers but I cannot find any drivers for Windows 98 SE and the CF-50.

I tried loading an ATI Radeon 9000 98 driver which did install with no complaints but after rebooting I'm still running the generic Windows pci video driver (16 colors and 640x480) Under XP the device manager says it's a Radeon Mobility 9000 but it didn't work.

I'd like to get the video, sound, network and modem drivers all for 98

Any help would be much appreciated!

thanks!

Fred

I though XP would support a dual boot, natively, with another windows product. Perhaps it's only Pro?

i know it is annoying to get asked questions that has less to do with your question but why the hell do you want to run windows 98 these days?

I run 98, but it's SE. I hope that's what Fred had in mind.
