Default 256 color 800 x 600 presario 5000?

Hello:

I have a presario 5000 (5bw160) and an mv740 monitor win 98 SE and all
original compaq software wiped from the disk. I can get windows running
fine but I can't more than 16 colors (early 90's vintage) video out of the
system. I have tried downloading drivers from compaq but the system
(vanilla 98 SE) won't recognize them. ??? Can't this machine work as a
generic winbox?

Grazie mill' e tre. It worked like a charm. You know your stuff. I could
have saved myself many hours of fruitless downloading and diskette
swapping if I'd just asked here first.

Thanks again,
Ed
