Verify if your Windows 7 is 32 bit or 64 bit, than download the driver accordingly from the Sharp website. Also try upgrading the driver ,it helps.

change the OS to your current running OS

You have to install usb drivers for win98 and win2000 operating system.
But if you install windows xp usb drivers not need because winxp recognize usb device as plug and play.
Windows xp is fast and more flexible than win98 and win2000.
click here

click on above link and download usb drivers for win2000.

• Windows XP 64bit (32062KB)

try to use the touchpad only, if that causes problems, try connecting a ps/2 or usb mouse

under win98se, win2000 or winxp it should work out somehow,
if not, deactivate the touchpad via the device manager, reinstall the appropriate driver for your windows version, reboot.
Still got the problem?
run a hardware detection software like pcwizard 2008( freeware) to find out whether your system recognizes the touch pad at all.
it could also be a hardware malfunction:
if yes, permanently deactivate touchpad and use mouse instead.

sometimes its a hardware driver software and OS driver software conflict on touchpad. if after OS installation the touchpad is already detected, no need to install the touchpad driver. try disabling the touchpad driver you installed. hope this helps

Yes, you can upgrade from Win98 to WinXP. The minimum hard drive requirements for WinXP is 1.5GB and the minimum RAM requirement is 64MB. You will also need a CD ROM for the install. Now those are the minimum requirements so don't expect it to go very fast. If possible I would recommend you upgrade to Win2000. WinXP and Win2000 are almost identical. The minimum hard drive for Win2000 is 650MB and for RAM it is 64MB. So you could still use your 4GB hard drive and have plenty of room. You will need a CD ROM for the Win2000 also.
Good luck if you have anymore questons let me know,

download it directly onto the laptop or any other internet-pc available, transfer the data using usb-flash drive (usb-stick, usb-mp3-player) or burn it onto a CD
- copy the downloaded driver software to your harddisk, the desktop for example, then double-click onto the .exe file(it is a selfinstaller for winxp and win2000) let it work it's magic, reboot the laptop and things should be fine now!

good luck

Sad to say you can't, this memstick is USB2.0 & there no drivers for Win98se to my knowledge. Options: [1] New PC [2] Upgrade to Win2000 or XP depending on pc specs.
