 |
|
|
I've got a USB flash drive that works fine w/Win2K. I brought it home & after installing the vendor-recommended driver, the damn thing won't work. I've removed & reinstalled the driver more than a few times & still no go. Anyone got any ideas on what might be wrong, or a generic/universal driver I could use? Thanx!

I think I'm pretty much skrewed. I got the flash drive as a perk from a software vendor thru my work. The drive is imported, and thusly they can't provide me much, no, any tech support. The maker's documents gave me a URL from which to download a driver, but it hasn't worked so far on my 98SE box. I've tried to use the drive with and without the driver, but so far no luck. That's why I was hoping there might be a generic or universal driver I could use. I'm pretty much left to my own devices on how to troubleshoot & get it to work w/98SE - if I ever can

Win 98 had no usb support. That was fixed in w98se. BUT, You do need a driver from the flash drive maker. So yes if you can't get it you are screwed! |

Presumably, the question is sorted by now, since it was asked in 2004.
How about checking the dates, before replying in these ancient threads?
