vicso Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 I have this old laptop that could use a usb flash key but its running 98 and not SE version but i've seen most usb key nowadays support 98SE. Only kingston says specically 98 is unsupported. What is different between 98 and 98SE usb support? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bizzybody Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Windows 95/95a has no USB support at all. There's a USB update patch for 95 OSR2.x but it only supports some USB controllers integrated in motherboard chipsets. A few PCI USB cards had 95 drivers available. There is extremely little USB device driver support for 95, so it's nearly useless. (Much like the Mac OS 8.x USB support!)98 has full support for USB in chipsets and PCI cards, but many companies say their device drivers "require" 98SE. (How about hacking that native USB patch for original 98?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
