buletov Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Hi there...Me was wondering if is there such a thing for Windows 98 or 98SE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phyridean Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 As far as I know, such a thing doesn't exist. There's simply too much variation in hardware implementation strategies to create a unified driver for all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buletov Posted September 24, 2004 Author Share Posted September 24, 2004 yeah, but the xp has the support for all of themthere must be some combination of a few drivers at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ardnelias Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 These links have some relevant info on USB mass storage drivers (the generic driver in use under windows 2000 and XP) http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/archive/wdmusb.mspxhttp://www.osronline.com/ddkx/install/idstrings_4n6v.htmFor certain USB-defined classes of devices, Microsoft provides a class driver that serves as a client driver for all devices in that class. The operating system automatically supports devices in these classes, with no additional driver required.Microsoft provides class drivers for the following classes of USB devices. Hardware vendors should not write drivers for these device classes:• Hub Device ClassMicrosoft provides the Hubclass.sys driver for managing USB hubs.• Human Interface Device (HID) ClassMicrosoft provides the Hidclass.sys driver for managing HID-compliant input devices.• Audio ClassMicrosoft provides audio class support by means of the Sysaudio.sys driver.• Mass Storage ClassMicrosoft provides the Usbstor.sys port driver that makes it possible to manage USB mass storage devices with Microsoft's native storage class drivers.• Printer ClassMicrosoft provides the Usbprint.sys class driver that manages USB printers.• Communications Device ClassMicrosoft implements the USB Communication Device Class Abstract Control Model by means of the Remote NDIS facility in all Windows platforms containing full-featured USB support. This facility centers the management of all 802-style network cards in a single class driver, Mdismp.sys. Mapping of remote NDIS to USB is implemented in the usb8023.sys driver.• Content Security ClassMicrosoft does not currently supply a single class driver that implements content security. However, some content security functionality is implemented within the composite client generic parent driver.Under Windows XP, vendors supplying their own USB client driver should make that driver a member of the USB setup class in the INF Version Section of the driver's INF file. For example:[version]Signature="$WINDOWS NT$"Class=USBClassGuid={36FC9E60-C465-11CF-8056-444553540000}There are no other special requirements associated with installing USB client drivers.

Stanislavs Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 You said it cant find Win 98 CD- Insert CD, and just press different letter for example D:\win98 or E:\win98 . By the way, all hardware that has to have USB connection, must have USB driver on their CD's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
