howdy,

i'm under the assumption that win98 external usb storage drivers are generic in nature (if i'm wrong let me know). With that in mind, does anyone have an archive of a driver set they could email me for use with one of those external usb1.1/2 laptop HD drives? I need to go to an employees house to backup some data before i wipe their system (they're running WinME and I'll be putting 98SE back on). WinME should see the drive, but the 98se won't.

I left the drivers at home (its a personal drive, not the agency's)

anyway, i have 2 hours, otherwise i'll probably have to drive home :)

thanks, i couldn't find the .sys file mentioned in the article (the link's dead) but found a slightly cleaner solution (duse4.4) while googling the .sys. hopefully it works :)

thanks again.

I usually just slave their hd to mine and drag over to a folder their stuffz(or burn it onto CDs) then once after rework of their system..slave again and drag/drop back in.
