Need help with drivers for an HP

I recently rescued a HP 6638 from the trash. I figured this would be a good computer to set with some simple games for my 4 year-old. Upon testing it, I found a dead HD. I replaced the HD and loaded a spare copy of Win 98 on it. I down loaded the drivers for it from HP's website, but when I attempt to install them I get an error message stating that they can not be installed "due to restrictions on this computer." What restrictions? This is a clean install of an over the counter verson of windows 98. I attempted to locate drivers from an alternate source like driverguide.com., but none worked. Why won't the HP drivers work? Is there a way to get them to work? Or, where can I get the right drivers? Thanks in advance.
