    Talking Driver needed - Compaq Presario 336-DF from Presario 2000

    Compaq Presario 2000, 133 MHz Cyrix Media GX Processor, 32 MB RAM, clean install of Windows 98 SE.

    Windows did not find the Integrated Video or modem. In 95 prior to the clean install of 98SE in Device Mangler, video was "Compaq QVision 2000\2000+ (MGA)" but it had a yellow exclamation. Modem was Compaq Presario 336-DF. Instruction on the Compaq site said to install the modem from the 98 CD. I did this & it actually had a driver called "Compaq Presario 336-DF", but when trying to load it, it warned "driver not written for device". I loaded it anyway, then it said files missing or corrupt.

    When I went to the Compaq web site for that model all they had was sound, F10 Setup & an update for the Quantum Big Piece of Crap Hard Drive. I have no idea why they wouldn't list a driver for the video or the modem? They'd be happy to tell my by phone for $19.95 though!

    Help!

    Um, one sure way to make it work would be just to buy a new computer, I have one if you want it.
