It would tremendously help if you mentioned your specs.
What graphics card are you using?
Which version of Windows are you using? (98, or 98 second edition)
Which driver are you installing?
What is the exact error message?

Do you know what graphics card you have? (Intel, NVidia, ATI? which model?)
If you don't know, do you know what the make and model of the computer is? If it was custom built, what's the make and model of the motherboard?

On an older machine like this you can just open it up and read on the gpu what card it's using. Back in the day there must have been hundreds of pci video cards and I don't think with windows 98 it will be able to identify which it's using.
