Help finding drivers for GX260

Question

My GX260 came with Windows 2000.  I reformatted and put on Windows 98 (job related).  Now, I have to reformat again and put on Windows XP (job related again).  How do I choose the correct drivers from the list?  I see the chipset (only one choice) and communication driver (matched packing slip), but I'm not sure for the video, audio, or network drivers.

Okay heres the run down.   If youre video connetor on your computer is not in one of the expansion slots then it is most likely INTEL Intergrted Video Driver.   The same thing goes for the audio if is not in the expansion slots and is built in it will most likly be the Analog Audio Device    Hope This Helps
