driver recognition

[TobiasOttahal]

Hi, I have a Opcode Studio 64 XTC
midi-interface. I´ve been using it
for a while, but then, a while ago, I had
to re-install my system.

before, I had Win 98.
After installation win 98 SE.

Now, since Opcode is almost
completely gone, they didn´t provide any new
drivers for win 98 SE and above, so I switched back
again to win 98.

But now, neither opcodes own patchbay program
find the driver I installed, nor does Cubase.
And, if I try to search for the driver file (which goes
by the name of "stu64xtc"), it cannot be found.

Before this, I took out my old soundcard and put in
a new one. To be specific, a Pulsar II.
I haven´t installed any software for it yet, since I
wanted the interface to be working first.

Do the soundcard and the midi-functions have
anything to do with eachother? That would be strange,
since I´m connecting the interface to the computer
through a COM-port. (Yes I have checked the IRQ, the
range, tried both ports and I have nothing else
connected to them other than the interface.)

So the question is:
How do I make My Win98 (1st edition)
recognize the Studio 64 xtc driver??
And how do I know that it´s installed, if I can´t see it
or search for it?

I´ve been messing with this for weeks.
I´m bloody tired of it...

Please help.....
