Using Win95/NT driver in Win2K/XP

I have a framegrabber card (Matrox Meteor) for a little too long time. It's still working if I use it under Win95 or WinNT. Is there no way to move to Win2K/XP when I can't get driver updates from the vendor/manufacturer?

You might be able to get the NT driver to work under 2k or XP. If it doesn't, nothing much you can do.

It works finally!!! Thank you very much. It's Great! But I still cannot get rid of the system announcement that it is an Unknown device. Nevertheless, it is a little annoying but everything is acceptable when it works, isn't it?
Summary: Yes, YOU CAN use SOME nt drivers in Win 2000. I struggled to get my scanner to work the other day, eventually I found the latest driver for NT4 - My scanner now works perfectly ! Regards, Steve....
