The best place to get hard to find drivers is driverguide.com . Just sign up
, it's free, and do a simple search. I searched for a Compaq 1230 OS win 98
and it gave me 29 results.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Compaq Presario 1230 display driver


> Hello list, I pulled a boneheaded mistake and formatted my h.d. before
saving the drivers. Now I've been all over creation looking for the display
drivers for this laptop. I've been to Compaq, but they don't carry recovery
disks that old. I've googled and come across drivers for said model, but
they don't work. I've bought a disk full of drivers from ebay, but being the
1230 is an odd duck, he didn't have the right driver that matched the
chipset. Is there somewhere on the web that has the older recovery disks? Or
a diagnostic that I can use to figure what chipset this unit is using?
