Video Driver for GenuineIntel x86 Family 15 model 1 Stepping 2

Can I upgrade my video driver on the above computer. This computer is about 6 or 7 years old, and the operating system is Windows 98. Is this video driver available anywhere or is it too old?

What you described in the title is a CPU . . .

There will be a chipset on the MoBo that is the graphics chip and that's the driver to look for.

Basically, we need more information about your motherboard. Any numbers or letter/number combinations on it? How about a name on the MoBo? Did the system have a brand originally, like Dell or HP? If so, was there a model number for the system?

You probably will be able to update the videodrivers, although the drivers may be hard to find, given the age of the computer.

Ive got another question too!! Why do u want to update? Are you trying to install any new component or it doesnt boot? Or is another problem? Well, of course it will be more than important like others have said wehat computer are we talking about (and MotherBoard especifically).
