Flash drive not recognized

Like the title says I am having trouble getting my old computer to see or recognize that there is a flash drive plugged in. I plug it in and nothing happens. The drive does light up but the systems does not seem to detect or see it.

Does anyone have an idea of what drivers I can go searching for?

Worst comes to it I will end up getting an external floppy disk drive to transfer data to an from this machine.

Thanks for the help in advance.
Wight.
 
what OS is it? i don't think any less then windows 98SE supports USB. maybe try booting the computer with a linux live cd?
 
The OS on the machine is Windows NT workstation 4.0

Not that I have much of a clue a to what that means. If there is any other information that I can provide that would be of assistance please ask.
 
Windows NT 4.0 has no USB capability at all - it cannot use or recognise any USB device. There are no drivers you can install and no work-arounds.
