WordPerfect Corp. doesn't have a bbs you can just call, but they do update
all their drivers on Compu$erve so if you have access there, that would be
a good place.  Second, if you call the WP support line they will gladly send
you a disk with the driver you need (maybe free of charge? I think I remember
that).

Good luck
