Optical drives never require a driver when used in Windows 98. The OS provides native support that allows this drive to read a data or music disk. Compatible 3rd. party recording software will provide the burning support.

You don't install an optical drive, you only connected and configure it properly and Windows does the installing for you automatically without user intervention.
