My Operation system is window 98 and I wish to use USB memory strick, but I can install the driver for win 98

THere are drivers for Windows Server 2008, Windows Home Server, Win 64-bit, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Win Server 2003, Win Me, Windows XP, Win Server 2008 R2, Windows 98, Windows 98 SE

I'm not sure if theres is a drivers for Win 7 or Win 8 so if you don't have one you should install Windows Vista or XP driver using compatibility mode

Hi..

Windows 98 does not support Plug n Play Devices. So you have to download appropriate drivers from Microsoft Website. Though Windows 98SE ( Windows 98 Second Edition ) thought to be support USB Mass Storage Drives fairly, these drivers are not pre-installed with OS. You have to download Service packs to install these drivers.

Since Windows 98 have TWO versions, we have to download corresponding service packs .

You can
Download Service Packs for Windows 98 Here

Download Service Packs for Windows 98 SE (Windows 98 Second Edition) Here

Thank You.

You need to install "Windows 98 USB Mass Storage Device Drivers" for your Win 98 depending which Win 98 version you are using.

Check this link for the USB 98 DRIVERS.

Hope it helps.

Windows 98 does not have USB drivers, you need to install a USB driver, check with the computer shop before you purchase the flash drive.

Win 98 does not support plug & Play USB devices unless the drivers are installed. Xp how ever does. you need to install the drivers to be able to used the device in win 98. since you did not get a driver cd, best would be to download the drive from the net. if you abl to give me more details of the device, i would be able to find the driver.

you will need the usb port drivers for windows 98 and the usb drivers for the printer as the earlier windows 98 had'nt the usb drivers included with operating system an as the new motherboards came about with usb ports then a new in 98 was needed to catter for this that's why you have win 98 first edition and win 98 se edition please chech that you have the driuvers installed for both parts to work.

good luck

Go to  http://www.technical-assistance.co.uk/kb/usbmsd98.php  and read it carefully.  Download the correct version of nusb and follow the installation instuctions to the letter!  Be prepared to spend a little time identifying any software in your Add/remove list that you don't recognize - don't guess - and remove USB devices from Safe Mode, to be certain you don't miss any.
If your mobo is USB 2.0 capable, you should now have it; if it's not, at least you'll have a generic USB 1.1 facility.  You should not need to remove viewer or album software, just the USB drivers and devices, but if you're of a nervous disposition, backup your system before you start!

Dear Ekwal Imam

Install driver for usb drive for win 98. the driver comes with usb. or visit manufacturer site.

wow, the 90's are a calling... sure their is a roumor of a usb pen driver for win 98' ....

 

Windows 98, especially in it's second edition (also known as Windows 98SE), handles USB fairly well, however there are no generic/universal mass storage device drivers preinstalled in the operating system, so you will need to install some additional drivers for it. Some manufacturers do however, provide the Windows 98 drivers on CD, others have them available to download, and others simply do not have them available at all!!!!!!!

 

generic Windows 98SE USB mass storage device drivers:

 

http://www.technical-assistance.co.uk/drivers/nusb31e.exe

 

instructions?? :

1. Download the exe file to the desktop
2. Remove ALL drivers for USB flash drives in Device Manager
3. Remove ALL drivers for any USB 2.0 controllers (many have an uninstall option)
4. Remove ALL unknown devices from Device Manager (*carefull)
5. Run the exe file you downloaded, and follow the instructions, rebooting after installation
6. When the computer boots up again, it may detect new USB 2.0 controllers, in which case you may need to reboot again

 

as always good luck! now im going to go back to my windows 95 and play Bioshock on full graphics!! excuse me = )
