If the OS does not recognize the flash drive we must
use / Settings / Control Panel / Add New Hardware.
Note that original Win98 has USB.v.1 not 2.

what usb-memory drivers do you use? something that came with your memory
or the
unofficial windows 98se native USB drivers? http://www.mdgx.com/web.htm#NUS
maximumdecims USB drivers are is now at version 3.3, so follow the link to
http://www.msfn.org/board/Maximum-Decim-Native-USB-Drivers-t43605.html
to get that version.
perhaps you can try to remove the old usb devicedrivers you have and
reinstall with the new ones.
(also, if you have a usb-memory with that ugly "U3"-thing that makes
your computer autostart softwares just by inserting it, then you should
probably remove the U3-software from it to get rid of the virtual
cd-rom reader that they emulate to do their dirty things. You need to
run some u3-remover-application you can get from u3's support webpages
or the usb-memorys manufaturer then)

teebo,
I currently use windows 98 USB drivers, I suspect that is my problem. I have
heard that there were drivers available that
would win98 run USB 2.0, I've searched but have been unable to locate such a
driver. The flash drives are Kingston and they work fine on my xp machine. I
was hoping I could use usb drives to transfer files. Thanks everyone,

Well, i got bit when i bought a Verbatim flash drive (was cheap as
all heck).
Seems they have a number of variants, and within one "type" there are
yet more variants.
And i got the *only* variant that the "driver" software is not only
incomplete, but (according to Verbatim) cannot work due to the chip
(hardware) inside.
The "good" news is that Win2K works with it OK and needs no MFG driver.
Would be nice if ther was a "generic" USB2.0 flash driver.....

If you plan on using device-specific (i.e. not the native USB) drivers, you will
need to identify the device. This means finding out what it really is under the
Kingston label. Fortunately, XP will help you do the ID bit and then google for
the specific device's 98SE-compatible driver.

What is the model of the Kingston flash drive? Have you looked yet on their support
site to see if they have drivers for Win98?
Do you have Win98 or Win98SE? You still have not answered that question, posed by
Ron in an earlier reply.
An alternative is to use the third-party generic Native USB Mass Storage Driver for
Win98:
http://www.technical-assistance.co.uk/kb/usbmsd98.php
It shows you on that web page how to determine whether you have 98 or 98SE.
Choose the download link on that page for the version of 98 you have.
If you haven't yet installed any drivers from Kingston for the flash drive, make
sure the flash drive is NOT inserted into your computer's USB port, go into Device
Manager and delete the Unknown devices in the "Other" category, click OK, then run
the downloaded installer, follow the prompts, and reboot.
(To find Device Manager, hold the Windows Key on the keyboard and press the
Pause/Break key, then release both, then click the Device manager tab).
Note that USB 2.0 must be supported by your computer's hardware, otherwise the
drives will operate at USB 1.1 speed. If the computer came new with Win98 or 98SE
on it, it is probably not going to have USB 2.0-capable ports....the flash drives
will still work, but at the slower speed.

Use Win98SE downloaded Verbatim driver for the "orphan" flash drive,
and discoveres what i mentioned.. Verbatim management is busy sitting on
their hands for a fix of *any* type.
Thanks on the generic driver will try it.
