clasher097 vbmenu_register("postmenu_24995", true); ,

Would you please find the driver attached. Extract these files to a Floppy Disk by selecting the floppy disk as your extract path. If you don't have either winzip or winrar, I suggest you download them. If you can't figure out how to extract directly to the floppy disk, just extract them somewhere onto your hard drive and copy the files onto the disk. To use these drivers, I suggest you read the readme file included in the zip file. Otherwise when you get to the command prompt, type as follows.
(then press enter to go to the floppy drive, if you're floppy drive is a different letter then use it in place of the "A", then type)
CDSETUP.EXE
Then you can just follow the prompts.

Hope I helped

ok, try this then

  
MSCDEX.EXE
that is after you get into the floppy drive. Other than that, try the readme file. I really hope this one works

Read the readme and boottime.txt, you'll find what you need in there.
