Hi everyone. I recently got a NEC Versa SX laptop and right now it has windows 98 installed without any drivers. I want at least sound and video to have this be useful. By looking at the user manuals online it looks like it has a Trident Cyber9388 graphics accelerator, and a sound blasters pro sound chip. I think I can find the sound blasters pro drivers although I haven't tried them yet, but the trident drivers I'm having more trouble finding. Apparently this came with restore CDs originally too and if anyone happens to have those by chance that'd be amazing. But was hoping someone could at least direct me to the trident drivers or if anyone else has any better information than what I found. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Thank you the video driver works just fine. Turns out the disc drive on here isn't working well so I'm not to worried about the dvd-to-go install cd 🤣. My audio drivers are wrong but that first link you gave shows what drivers I need to find.
