As to why I don't just put Win98 on it: I think it would be rather slow on that machine P, 32MB and I suspect I would have to jump through a lot of hoops to get it working I did with Win Find a 98Se update or forget it. Unfortunately many manufacturers were waiting for the release of Windows 98 and the official support of USB. Just download 98lite. Remove IE and then reinstall IE. I think I remmeber something about microsoft putting out a fix for the whole USB thing in windows 95 have you tried checking there website?
Windows 95 retail, OEM 4. According to microsoft knowledge base you must download and istall USB support for Windows95 for your specific version of your Windows, as drivers for USB varies and may cause problems if used with another version. Sometimes when you plug-in a USB device in windows95 when puter is on may cause windows95 freeze or don't recognize the device properly.
Shut down your computer, plug-in the device and turn it on again. See if that helps. After you make sure that your windows version supports USB, then you can install any device using general drivers windows have for USB devices. That must solve your problem. It will only show usb devices if it is active, else the list is empty. I installed with the batch file. So I tried again, and this time I could specifiy the driver path. I just pointed at the Program Files directory I had let the extractor put it at before.
But it still didn't work. I don't remember exactly what I did at this point. I think I deleted the entry in the register, and tried again, and asked me to reboot this time. I said No and saw that the device had a problem.
I figured that it was because I hadn't rebooted yet. Rebooted, still no drive, still a problem. At this point I uninstalled the whole package and pointed Windows again at the drivers I got from Nathan Lineback. My USB stick works fine again.
Thank you for your effort and feedback That would mean traces of the previous drivers are still being used by windows. Remove instances of the usb sticks from the registry or hardware control panel.
Reboot first to clear any loaded driver for the usb devices. Then try out the usb storage drivers. NO uninstall option to remove those drivers is another reason why I gave it a low grade. BUG 2: When a multi-card reader 4 slots with a US Best chip inside is connected, the removal menu of the icon in the system tray displays 4 selectable entries:. No cards were inserted in the other slots K,M,N. Clicking on one of the 3 selections without a drive letter will produce the msg: "Usb storage device cannot be removed".
Clicking on the selection "Disconnect N:" works ok, with the msg: "Usb storage device successfully removed". For multi-card readers there should be only a single menu selection, like "Disconnect K,L,M,N", as the Genesys safely-remove-utility has but Genesys has a problem of multiple-drive-letters with multi-card readers. Upon trying to safely-remove K: a msg appears: "Usb storage device cannot be removed". I hope PassingBy will continue to develop this program ; this is the only detached safely-remove-utility for Win98 I know of, for WinXP there are lots.
I'm interested in a similar utility that can actually power off the USB port when the drive is disconnected. I'm not sure what effects could have the intermittent contacts when the device is physically pulled out while still powered on. I was "lucky" enough to install this pack on my Win95 machine in order to be able to use an USB flash drive. At that time late I did not do much testing to see if the pack worked without serious problems. Nowadays I need to use the said flash drive extensively on this particular machine.
This is how I found out that the USB mass storage pack has serious deficiencies. Namely, once a flash drive is ejected, it cannot be reconnected with the machine, as it is not recognized unless the computer is restarted. Furthermore, after trying to uninstall the driver pack, the machine becomes unstable and either cannot boot the OS altogether "while initializing device ntkern windows protection error. The creator of this ill-fated pack did not bother to provide an uninstall utility; and gives some vague instructions a few posts above in the topic about how to uninstall the whole thing.
Normally, I would reinstall the OS and start anew, the problem is that I have spent literally months to fully set up this machine with tons of software. Thus I would very much like to rectify the problem without reinstalling everything from scratch. I hope someone can help me out with the following, which I believe is the culprit for the instability of the machine: the USB pack install its own patched nodriver. Seems that the creator of the USB pack modified it to go along with the drivers used in the pack.
