Dude how did you install Windows 98.

that thing doesnt install in these m/b's:wink:

Infact it refused to install on my 2 year old ASUS (intel) 915g m/b


btw you have to wait for the final version of drivers.:(

have you updated BIOS???
& from where you're downloading GMA updates- ASUS or Intel website.

I am downloading GMA updates from the Intel website . they always have updated copies than ASUS .

btw , i do know about the incompatibility of win98se with asus p5b-vm , thats why it didn't worked for me in the first place , then came my big bro to rescue , he had some workarounds and finally managed it . but the os itself was extremely unstable .
