Accessing the Dell support site (US), there are drivers for Windows 2000, Vista and XP, there is no Windows 98. In fact, after browsing many older latop models (Latitude, Inspiron, Precision Mobile), I found NO Windows 98. Could it be that there were such drivers, but Dell have stopped providing them? True, But some time you can get drive updates, by the mf. of the part.. Now the drivers for Windows 2000, same time, in the Zip.Exe.SetUp the updates drive, for Windows 98 are there too.. Some Time a 95% are there... Did Dell Latitude D series ever have Windows 98 drivers? If yes, please tell me where I could find them. There are thousand of spam sites pretending to provide drivers but .......

Although I've already told the OP (in m.p.w98.gd because the OP apparently multi-posted) that there are no win-98 drivers for the Intel 945GM / 945PM chipset (the chipset found in the D620), for the sake of providing complete information I will mention here that several people have taken the Intel driver Chipset Software Installation Utility (Version: 6.3.0.1007 - Nov 2004) and have added or modified certain inf files to include support for - ICH7 chipsets 945/946/975/955/31/41 - Q963, Q/P/G965 and 925X/XE This still may not do any good for someone with the mobile version of the 945 chipset. The 6.3.0.1007 version of the Intel file includes win-9x/me support for 915/915M chipset, and supposedly Intel withdrew either the availability of this version of their utility, or removed win-98 support for 915/915M in later releases of the utility. A direct download link for these enhanced drivers is he http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/7/...361/INFW9X.rar The rar file is password protected. The password is "a" (no quotes). |
