First post, by YetAnother98dude
Hi, this ist my first post here.
So I built a Win98 SE machine consisting of the following:
Pentium III-S 1400
Asus Tusl2-c
Nvidia FX5900XT
512 MB RAM
120GB SSD
DVD drive
I Installed Windows 98se and chipset drivers and nothing else. Next was supposed to be the GPU driver, but it just leaves me with an error message saying: "Setup was unable to locate any Nvidia graphics chips..." and then canceling the installation.
I tried different driver versions, 45.23, 53.04 and some version on the original disc included in the graphicscard's box. Messing with all relevant Bios settings did nothing, Bios is on the latest version by the way, reinstalling Windows multiple times did nothing, using different SSDs and HDDs didn't work. Am I missing something? It's like Windows not seeing anything AGP. The card definitely works. During post, the first being displayed is "GeForce FX5900XT VGA BIOS...".
I tried to get this to work all day. I hope somebody can help. 😁
