Win98 drivers update to 98SE

I'm trying to install a PCI wireless card in my desktop
computer running Win98. The problem is that the PCI card
only works with 98SE or newer (I'm fed up with looking any
longer for one that works with 98). I was told I could
upgrade the drivers from 98 to 98SE to make this work?!

Could anyone please help? I REALLY need to get my computer
working.

FYI, I hooked up my new Belkin Wireless router to my
Comcast cable modem fine and it works well with my Belkin
wireless card on my laptop running XP. Wish it was that
easy with 98.

Thanks much,
Greg

No, you cannot "upgrade the drivers" - you need to upgrade the entire system
with a copy of Windows 98 Second Edition.
