Help on Windows 98 USB driver

I need to save files off old my teacher computer, but the computer won't recognize any of my disks to jump when I put them in there. He continues to say that he cannot locate a driver for it.

I can't use a CD to save the info because the CD drive doesn't open; and as the computer is still running on dial-up for internet, I can't update driver software.

Is it possible to get my USB works on a Windows 98 computer without connecting to the Internet? I want to just save the files on the Windows 98 computer for transfer to my Windows 7 computer.

Thank you.

You have a problem.

Unlike Windows XP and later versions of Windows, Windows 98 did not come with drivers for USB mass storage devices. See http://www.technical-assistance.co.uk/kb/usbmsd98.php

Why don't you use dial-up?  People lived with it for a while.  It is much slower that you may be used to, but it's the easiest way to get a driver for your USB device installed on the Win98 box.

If you cannot (or are not allowed to) use dial-up and can not use the reader of CD, is the Win 98 computer has a floppy drive?  And you have access to another computer with a floppy drive that can connect to the Internet?

If all else fails, and assuming there is a network card in the box of Win 98, set up a network connection between two computers using a cablecrossover (a crossover cable has the differently wired connectors at different ends).  The following article should help: http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/wxpwin9x.html (use TCP/IP instead of NetBEUI)

If the Win 98 box has no network card, you use a "direct cable connection" with a serial cable or parallel. You could buy the software and a http://www.laplink.com/ cable that was once the standard method to transfer files between Windows computers...

  • Apple iPhone 4S for windows 8.1 usb driver

    Apple iPhone 4S no usb driver for windows 8.1

    Hello syap_pop,

    It seems that you have the driver installed on Windows 8.1 for iOS devices. Use this section of the following article:

    If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod

    You do not see the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver

    1. Disconnect your device from your computer.
    2. Save a screenshot by pressing the Home button and sleep/wake button of the device button at the same time. The screen should Flash briefly.
    3. Reconnect your device to your computer.
    4. If you see one of these sections in the Device Manager, expand them:
      • Imaging devices
      • Other devices
      • Portable devices
      • USB Bus controllers

    Now, locate the entry that recognizes the device as a camera. You should see 'Apple IPhone', 'Apple iPad' or 'Apple iPod '. Right-click the device entry, and then manually update the Apple Mobile Device USB driver.

    If a single unknown device appears, follow these steps:

    1. Right click on the unknown device entry.
    2. Choose Properties from the context menu, and then click the Details tab.
    3. In the drop-down menu, select hardware IDS.
    4. If the ID begins with something other than USB\VID_0000 & PID_0000, go into the Device Manager and right click on the entry for device unknown, and then manually update the Apple Mobile Device USB driver.
    5. If the ID begins with USB\VID_0000 & PID_0000, then follow the remaining steps.
    6. Unplug the unit and remove all the USB devices on the computer.
    7. Shut down the computer, and then turn it back on.
    8. Reconnect the device, tests of each USB port for about 30 seconds to see if the device is recognized.
    9. Test with a different, checked 30-pins-USB or the lightning-connector-cable-USB, if they are available.

    If you still need help, contact Apple technical support.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  • No Apple USB driver in Windows 10 Device Manager

    Is there a way to retrieve the Apple USB driver in Windows 10 Device Manager.  I downloaded the iTunes 12.3.3 yesterday and now he is gone.

    I tried

    • plug into each of my Apple devices (iPod, iPad, iPhone, iPhone 4S 6)
    • restarting my computer
    • disabled my virus protection software
    • synchronization with different strings (some Apple, others not)
    • my devices restart and try again
    • Uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling
    • Uninstalling iTunes and goes back to and older version
    • make a Windows system to a restore point when I could synchronize my devices

    My main problem is that I need to sync my devices and iTunes does not detect them without the driver.  Windows can detect my devices and they appear in the file Explorer.  I am also able to get pictures and videos I've taken off the power unit and on my computer with no problems.

    Anything else I can try?  I'm out of ideas.  Thank you!

    This can help:

    If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone, iPad or iPod - Apple Support

  • Windows 7 SP1 RC messes up 2 USB drives

    I had this problem before and removed the SP1 and it cures the problem, now, after some update, he's back.  I have 6 USB drives on my desktop HPE - 390T.  Two of these drives keep popping up a message "this device can operate more quickly if connected to a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port."  Well, it is a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port.  I checked the drivers and all six USB ports have the same version of the driver.  When you check the Device Manager on these two ports, it has yellow triangle with exclamation point and that is the message by double clicking on "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might be installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or maybe it's a malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52) "I tried to update the drivers but it comes back that I have the latest drivers, which as I said, are exactly the same as the other 4 USB ports.

    For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

  • Computer infected with the virus. USB drives no longer appear in Windows Explorer.

    Original title: attack viruses, help...

    My friend has a computer that is running windows XP. She asked for help on what to do when several virus has infected his computer.

    I tried my best, but the virus has turned off. The Task Manager, msconfig are impossible to perform. the computer had a virus which is the reason why it continues to be infected. The last scan I made from a usb key which has been infected to leave the computer has revealed five different viruses and worms, each of them spread through usb drives. It's the worst case of infection, I had ever seen.  I tried to scan with the scanner but it did not work. The computer crashed, and when I turned it on things have become much worse. USB drives no longer appear in the Explorer, the computer reads no more and the old xp theme has disappeared, his running today on classic. Help me please.

    Please follow the steps below:

    On a friend or a member of the family computer, download the files installation and update Malwarebytes from the links below, copy them to a CD or a flash drive, then transfer the files on the problem machine and use them. If you cannot start the computer in 'normal' windows, try to install, update and running AFTER the computer scans are started in Mode safe... I use the sites below to download the installation file and the manual update:

    Once downloaded and before moving the machine to the problem, rename the Setup file "mbam - setup.exe" to something like "Gogetum.exe", and then copy the installation file and the update on a CD or a flash drive file... Transfer the file to the problem machine, install the "Gogetum.exe" file, and then run the update for the current program... After that, run a full system scan and delete everything it finds.

    Install Malwarebytes-download link (by clicking the links below will immediately start the download dialog window.)

    http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free>

    Then download the SuperAntispyware program and the manual update of the links below. After you run the Malwarebytes tool that above, if you still cannot download and install directly from the problem machine, download it to a friend or a family member computer as well. After installation and update SuperAntispyware, run a full system scan and delete everything it finds as well. As before, you may need to rename the Setup file for the Setup program. :

  • Windows vista USB flash drive installation AND recover the WINDOWS KEY from the recovery disk

    Hi all

    I formatted my laptop some time ago. Now I want to reinstall windows vista (came along with my laptop). The thing is due to a problem that my CD drive does not work so I would like to install windows vista by using a USB key. Can you get it someone please let me know if this is possible... If Yes, how I've go ahead make a bootable USB.

    As someone can tell me if there is a way to retrieve the WINDOWS KEY from the recovery disc.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    This can help, but you will need a Vista system to create the working bootable USB key:http://www.askvg.com/how-to-create-bootable-usb-drive-to-install-windows-vista/

    As for the product key, it should be on a sticker on the laptop (usually on the bottom). If it is not readable, contact the manufacturer for further assistance. As we said already, the product key is not on the installation disc.

    Replace broken laptop optical drives is not too difficult, you can see this as another option.

  • Windows 7 USB Flash drive - if I click on Scan and difficulty after you insert the disk, it erases my files

    Original title: Windows 7 USB/Flash drive problems

    In Windows 7, if I plug in my USB drive, the message box appears titled ' do you want to scan and difficulty of removable disk (e :))?»  If I click on Scan and Fix, he deletes my files (or so I thought).  I hope that the files are still there and I have simply can't see because the drive is FAT32 and not NTFS (it says that most of the drive is NOT of free space, so I assume that the files are still there).  What should I do to see / access files?

    Note: A reader, I never selected "Scan and repair"... so I can still see/access files.
    On the other drive, however, the first time I plugged it on Windows 7, I clicked Scan and Fix and it erased all the files on this drive (I guess).  This of course got me very angry.

    Hi MichaelGramm,

    It seems that the file format has been corrupted. You might consider formatting the drive in NTFS file system and check if this solves the problem. For Windows 7, the best choice for hard disks is NTFS.

    Note: Make sure that you back up the data before formatting the disk.

    See these articles for more information on formatting disks and flash player:

    Create and format a hard disk partition

    Formatting disks and drives: frequently asked questions

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/formatting-disks-and-drives-frequently-asked-questions

     

    Caution:

    Formatting erases all existing files on a flash drive. If you format a flash disk that has files on it, the files will be deleted.

    Hope this information helps.

  • Tablet WON'T start from any USB drive to the UEFI format unless it has the installer of Windows 8!

    Hello! I've done many tutorials online, which none have worked. Here's my question:

    I am trying to install Windows 7 on my shelf (I have on an another USB drivers). However, I plug it into the dock the Tablet and turn it on and go into the BIOS, and that's where. But when I try to boot from it, the screen flashes and it goes back to the boot in the BIOS. With the help of Rufus, I tried all combinations (TPG for UEFI, MBR computers for UEFI computers, etc.) and none of them work! To test if the USB was defective, I loaded an iso image 8.1 install 64-bit Windows on the drive, and to my surprise, it started from the drive and started the Setup program! I can't start the Windows 7 installation. I tested the stick in my laptop UEFI and it starts very well! What I am doing wrong? Will this work? probably not, but I am bit agitated-e-f (see below)

    Interesting thing is that in the BIOS, it is said that to enable secure boot (did not you or off), CSM must be disabled. I guess it is, but I can't find where to turn them back on. Site Web de American Megatrend will not let you submit a support ticket, unless you are in a company :|
