Sorry, but this won't happen with Windows 95/98/ME. Intel stopped developing
Windows 95/98/ME drivers for its chipsets with the 845 chipset. There is some
possibility that the 845 drivers could be cobbled up to work with the 865 and
875 chipsets. But the 900-series chipsets are Windows 2000 and XP only. And
Vista, course. WOW! ... Ben Myers

I beleive the Omnibook 510 uses the Intel 830MG video. You can download
Windows 98 drivers for the Omnibook 510 from:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us
&prodNameId=77991&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=77989&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnv
OID=20

Specifically the video driver is available for download at:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en
&cc=us&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=77989&prodNameId=77991&swEnvOID=20&swLang=
