I installed Win98SE on a 560 I just sold and I found that the install CD
contained everything needed except for the ThinkPad configuration
utilities.

You may want to have a look at the device driver file matrix at
http://www.pc.ibm.com/qtechinfo/DSHY-3RYRAK.html

It lists a newer video driver (v6.00.47.11, dated 6-Feb-2000). When I
applied it Win98 warned me it wasn't suitable for this machine (or
something to the same effect) but when I went on it did install without
problems.

You must have some external devices (PCMCIA-cards?) connected to your
TP560, otherwise everything internal should be recognized correctly.

HTH, Dominique
