Did you try going to Nvidias web site for 98 drivers.
Most of the major players are still supplying drivers for
98. I'm not sure if they have the drivers for your card,
but it's worth a look. here is the link.

I have XP now. I went to the site and downloaded the
driver and installed it but it doesn't show up on the
device manager. It doesn't list my card in the supported
hardware list either.

I have the same card in my video editing system and it works fine with XP,
don't play games on there though. Have you update XP?

How are you viewing the screen if it's not listed in device manager? Do you
have on-board graphics that need to be disabled?
