Hello,
who knows howto correctly install Riva 128ZX drivers under Windows '98? I've
downloaded drivers from nVidia.com but Windows 98 still doesn't use them
correctly! My keyboard-language is PL, so during the installation I've
changed the language into EN, but it still doesn't work! Then I downloaded
drivers for my chipset, Intel 82440LX [motherboard MSI MS-6117], installed
them, then riva drivers again... And STILL doesn't work!!! I don't know what
to do else, please help me!!!

Delete all the drivers except Standard VGA ones
(or install that ones before & than delete others)
than you have to install first minimum DirectX 6.1 & than reinstall
usb support /chipset drivers ... than you can install drivers for
Video ... should work ...
 
I understand, but howto delete all the drivers except Standard VGA?

1) Set the video to standard VGA in Display properties or
Device Manager.

2) Reboot the system and confirm that the video card is
listed as Standard VGA and that there is only one video card
entry in Device Manager. If there are multiple entries,
delete ALL of them and reboot, choosing Standard VGA after
it's re-plug-n-played.

3) The goal is to have successfully booted to the desktop
at least once with only one video card showing up in Device
Manager and it being listed as Standard VGA. At that point,
install the nVidia driver and reboot.

You didn't mention the results of "doesn't use them
correctly"... is it simply stuck in 640x480x4bpp or other
problems too?
 
I have done the installation correctly now, it was so simple;] Steps I made:
1] Windows '98 installation;
2] DirectX 8.1 installation;
3] AGP support installation [Intel 82440LX-chipset update];
4] Keyboard language changed to english;
5] Riva 128ZX driver installation;
6] Keyboard language changed to polish;
7] "IRQ for VGA" in BIOS changed to ENABLED.
That's all folks ;]
