Question How to install drivers?

After a recent reformat of my C:/ drive I was missing the SiS 5513 dual PCI IDE controller, PCI Ethernet controller and PCI Multimedia Audio Device drivers. I have finally found and downloaded them into my downloads directory. They are each in their own folder and still zipped.

What is the best way to install them? Do I do it in Device Manager, by using the "Up Date Drivers" button or should I delete them then reboot and let windows ask for them?

I am running win98se with a 1gig AMD Duron processor and 384 mgs of RAM.

Any suggestions/help is appreciated.

Unzip them and look for a readme. If there is a setup.exe in there, just run that.
