98SE & ME use 'wdm' sytle drivers (windows direct media) stuff before that uses vdx (Virtual eXtended Device), WDM is kind of 'middleware' & doesn't directly address hardware, VDXs deal directly with the device ... The WDM model is 'iffy' for all 9x windows installs & only 'works' really 'good' with NTFS systems like w2k or xp, theres a great long technical explanation to do with resource arbitration, which is too tedious even for me to explain 
As far as IBM seem to be concerned they expect the 98 drivers to be WDM too, very touching too, I'm sure such faith in Uncle Bill ... however I'm none so trusting so the 95 drivers are what we want, which are definately vxd style, they'll be on the IBM site somewhere ....
