TomPaul Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 (edited) I have a Win98SE w/500mCPU, 250mRam, 40GHD at 25%full.I've installed 2 USB to IDE cases containing Hard drives - They work OK.I purchased 2 - USB to IDE cable adapters, (both from China but different manufactures), neither one will be recognized by 98SE but both work on a frends XP. It seems to the drivers? XP doesn't need any.Does anyone know of a driver that has worked on a 98SE machine?Where can I get one? ThanksTom Edited June 20, 2005 by TomPaul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Computer Commando Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 WinXP and Win2k usually have built-in drivers. Win98 will need drivers, they should be included on the CD that came with the adapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaclaz Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Usually win98 drivers are "customized" on the device.Please post the EXACT make/brand whatever information you have on the manufacturer and/or WHERE you bought it.Or you can try "randomly" these:http://www.cablestogo.com/help/ctg_drivers.asphttp://www.argosy.com.tw/techsupport/usb11.htm(just search on google for "USB to IDE" drivers)jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
