I am reinstalling win98 se for a friend on an IBM 300 GL that she got second hand. only thing is she only got the audio drivers for it and I can't get the video to work. It is on board S3 3d turbo chip in the MB but any driver I have tried from their site doesn't give anything more than 16 colours. Any one have experience with these machines and knowledge of what driver to use? Thanks

See,
http://www-1.ibm.com/support/
to see if you can locate new drivers.
Other than that you might try changing change to the standard Windows VGA, SVGA, or 8514 video drivers as a stop gap measure.
Also you might try downloading DDCtest from;
http://www.entechtaiwan.com/
Run it and note which resolutions your video card & monitor support at which refresh rates. Then you may be able to obtain your desired res setting by resetting your refresh rate on the Adaptor tab when you select Advanced.
