Need help locating a fairly general driver for this. At work we have an old PC (5+ years old, 4GB hard drive if you want the approx. age).
It had no speakers, I found some laying around and plugged them in. Of course there is no audio driver installed and it has Windows 98, which can't find any generic driver to use. Now I don't know who made the motherboard, but i'm certain it's a VIA chipset. Would it be AC '97 audio? In other words, would a driver for AC'97 work? I'm at home now, but I will email myself the driver and then try it out the next time I work. Any other ideas for a generic driver to use would be of help. PS, I tried Windows Update. 20 critical updates (lol), 40 recommended updates and 0 driver updates.
