I need some help finding the text of a driver installation message in the English version of Windows98.
I'm currently working on a translation of a manual for a recording device, and in one section, a piece of software has to be installed. At one stage during the installation process, the user will be asked the following question:
穓碝ゑ瞷ㄏノい続臱笆杆竚-某匡兜 (big5)
Roughly "Find a more appropriate driver than the one currently used - recommended"
There's also an option saying
﹚竚 (big5)
"Specify a location", where the user can browse through the file directory to specify the driver location.
My problem is of course that the text cannot be a translation, but it must be the exact message actually used in English Windows, and I'm running my PC on a TradChinese system. What is the wording of these messages in English Windows?

I am using Wondows ME. This is the version on my system:
" Search for a better driver than the one your device is using now.(Recommended) "
" Specify a location: "
Hope that helps.

: A self-help solution: Download the Microsoft glossary for Traditional Chinese and search with a text search utility. I use Funduc. Both strings, in English and in Chinese side by side, are in that glossary.
