This repo is specifically for drivers and driver related software to enable a user to easily acquire the latest working drivers for their chosen OS. This repo will ONLY be for the latest working drivers for Proxmox devices AND passthrough devices and NOT a repository of all driver versions or drivers for all devices that can be used with passthrough.

I've decided to upload what I have otherwise I never will. This is mostly complete for NT4/98SE,2000+. Needs work for the remaining operating systems.
This repo doesn't contain modified OS files. AFAIK, legally it would have to be a patcher or an xdelta. So for instance if wanting to run XP on Q95 instead of 440fx then distributing ACPI.SYS from another OS or compiled from leaked source wouldn't be posted on this repo.

For what I've done so far I'd like to create issues in this repo for what I've encountered, add to the readme the list of emulated hardware and settings for each OS as well as commands needed to remove hardware from the config that's not shown in the gui, etc. Possibly blank templates as well with instructions on how to load them.
