Win98 upgrade to SE

I have an old Win98 computer that doesn't have internet access, and i
need to transfer files from it to a newer computer. Trying to use a
flash drive for it, but the flash drive manufacturer requires download
of drivers to use it with SE, and it can't be used for earlier
versions of Windows.

Any suggestions on (1) transferring the files (2) making the flash
drive usable?

Thanks.

Does the new computer have internet access, and if so, what kind? Broadband
cable, DSL, dial-up, what? If broadband, what kind of router and/or modem.

What version Windows is on the new computer?

Win98 = no usb
Win98SE = usb compatible, but some drivers are tricky to load, details vary.

My suggestion is the following -

Win98 Hard drive = Should be IDE, if so do the following.
1.) Purchase a USB to IDE drive adapter (about $20.00).
2.) Remove power cord first for safety, then remove hard drive from Win98
computer.
3.) Mount in drive in adapter.
4.) Connect adapter to USB port on your XP computer.
5.) Open up a My Computer window, find old hard drive.
6.) Drag and drop to your hearts content.

This also gives you a chance to format/wipe the drive. I tend to go in first
and delete the temporary files to reduce data transfer time, but if the drive
hasn't been scandisked in a while, it's best to grab what you can first w/o
disturbing the dive

If you want to save the $20 you can just mount the drive in your current
computer. It can take analysis of your current jumper settings (master/slave)
if you have other IDE drives, therefore a more detailed explanation is would
be needed, request if so. I don't know your skill level but these answers are
also findable in a Yahoo search.

Other ways:
- Install network adapter, transfer through home network.
- Buy/obtain a special parallel or serial cable, then install the appropriate
software (part of the early Windows products) and transfer data.
- Buy a ready made kit with cables and special software that attempts to make
it easy. (Check for Win98 compatibility)

{The coolest way - throw in any random network adapter, boot with a live
Linux disk, transfer through home network}

1. Remove drive from old computer

2. Put drive in new computer after setting drive jumper to reflect the
position (master/slave)

3. Copy files

You may want to try MSFN froums. They have a section devoted to 98/98SE/ME.

Yep.
If you don't mind fooling with h/w that's often the easiest route to go.

Otherwise, networking the machines is another possibility.

Totally incorrect?? You mean (for example) that Win98 FE has at least
some USB support in it? (I can't recall now)

I thought that USB support was either added (or maybe just extended) in
Win98SE. (But albeit *nothing* like the USB support that was put into
WinME.

USB support first appeared in Win95 OSR2. It wasn't very good, and not
very many USB devices ever supported that OS. It was much improved in
Win98 (FE), but they didn't really nail it until Win98SE. *Lots* of
USB devices that came out around that time specified Win98SE as a
minimum requirement.

Get a cheap network adapter and put it into the 98 machine and network it.
If you have any problems, post back. (There are other methods of networking
that work but are a total pain to set up and use.)

Or there's the other suggestions of simply putting the old hard drive into
the new machine, but I'd want to know the make/model of both new machines
(or motherboard) to say just how easy it might be for either.

Or, while it's iffy, there's this info from Glen Ventura. Might get a flash
drive to work in that machine:

********************************
Install the so-called Native USB Mass Storage Driver:
http://www.technical-assistance.co.uk/kb/usbmsd98.php

http://www.technical-assistance.co.uk/kb/win98se-usb-mass-storage-drivers.php

I suggest the version 2.x drivers for your older system with no USB 2.0
support:
http://www.technical-assistance.co.uk/drivers/nusb24e.exe

To install the version 2.x drivers:
Download the exe file to the desktop
Remove ALL drivers for USB flash drives in Device Manager
Remove ALL unknown devices from Device Manager
Run the exe file you downloaded, and follow the instructions, rebooting
after
installation

To both Hackmaster and DadiOH... Putting an IDE hard drive into almost any
of the newer machines isn't always easy, or even possible. Even if you
manage to connect it to the PATA connector, strange things happen that
require different settings in BIOS, and it can get weird, to say the least.

New external enclosure won't work, either, since it has the same problem as
the flash drives. Next to no USB support.

Networking is the way to go, IMO.

Putting old IDE with PATA connectors into many or most new machines is a
royal PITA. The PATA connections aren't really intended for hard drives,
only for Optical drives, though there are usually ways to tweak the BIOS to
make things work. Easier thing to do is get a PCI card controller--if
there's room for one.

As long as you're networking the 98 machine with the XP machine, it's the way to go.

Trying to network a 98 system with a Vista system is not worth the effort, if you
can get it to work at all. You may get the Vista system to copy from the 98 system,
but don't even bother trying to look the other way....at least in my experience it
has been a mess.

Have you had any luck with a Vista--98 network?

I do it all the time and there is no problem unless the cable (as shown
here)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Technology_Attachment
has one of the holes blocked and the HD has a pin there.
If I run into that I just grab an old 40 wire cable and use it.

Though data transfer time may be a little slower...
for a one time data transfer it should not be a major problem

You just plug it in and it works? Or are there not certain BIOS settings to
change? I tell you, my ASUS P5B was a PITA to set up when I was trying to do
just this operation. Can't recall the details now, but after a few hours, I
dug up Promise card, instead, since I needed the single PATA connector for
my optical drives.

Mostly all figured out with Ultimate, but I suspect there may be differences
in lesser versions when it comes to ease of setting up a workgroup. Here's
the main trick:

http://help.lockergnome.com/windows2/Vista-network-problem-ftopict482765.html
There's a post near the bottom from Gloria Boyer, MSFT, that explains the
issue is authentication. Vista is configured out of the box to use *only*
NTLM2 for authentication. For domain-controlled networks (I don't think it
works for Workgroups, though I'm still looking into that), what you do is
install DSClient and then add an entry to the Registry that makes the
authentication NTLM2-only. (See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/239869).

But what worked for me is to change Vista to accept NTLM(1) as per Steve
Winograd's solution:
http://help.lockergnome.com/windows2/WinMe-Vista-glitch-ftopict484703.html

Major problem with this method is that while I (and others who have
reported) can see Vista's shared folders from Win98 (Gold, fully updated, no
DSClient or Registry tweak), there are two shares that you can't touch
(total freeze.) They are Vista's built in shares called "Users" and
"Public". Why, I don't know, but I'm still playing with it.

Anyway, if you want to transfer any or ALL of the data from a Win98 machine
to the Vista machine, create a folder on the Vista machine (not on the
Desktop, where you can't apparently share folders for some reason), share
it, and then do Steve's two tweaks. The folder should then be totally
available to the Win98 machine.

Other things to remember: There must exist a User on the Vista machine with
exactly the same username and password you use to log onto your Win9x
machine. And any time you mess with network settings on the Vista machine,
for some weird reason, to finish the job you may have to go to the Users
applet and "change" your password. DON'T actually change it, just put in the
same old password three times and click OK (or whatever -- I can't see Vista
while I write because it's dual-booted on this machine and I'm not moving my
mail over there.
