Predictably, Kingston offers no support for their devices in Windows 98 so no driver can be installed to pick up the flash drive. After much searching and testing, I finally managed to install the Kingston DataTraveler on Windows It does though work well for the purpose it was intended for, it did for me and has for many other people. During reboot, the computer will detect new devices and USB controllers and will ask for the Windows 98 install CD so make sure you have it to hand.
If you have any issues, then follow the advice and reboot a second time. Then insert your USB storage device and it should get picked up by Windows. Open My Computer and your flash drive or device should be visible. You can visit the related MSFN forum thread for more support or updates to the driver in future. And, assuming there is such a driver — either for flash drives or PHDs, or both — where can I get it? Thank you so much!
Amazing program and works great. I was getting extremely frustrated after days of trying to find the proper USB drivers for my Gateway Armada e laptop running a fresh install of Windows 98 SE until i ran across this site purely by accident.
I figured I would give this a try because I was starting to get desperate at this point. I had already gone through over a dozen CD-R disks in an attempt to find the right drivers and had one more left.
Took a chance and burned this software to my very last CD and installed it. It read and installed my 16gb flash drive immediately. No more burning disks to copy files to my laptop.
I had long known this was possible I think Phils Computer Lab has something like this linked but this was a well-written, easy to understand process. Thank you, it worked the first time, now I can copy large files over without the need for taking stuff apart. It did not work for me. I get a message that it only works from 98 SE 4. Used the Nusb36e on an old Windows98 machine. Rebooted and presto- it immediately recognized an older 32gb USB stick.
I simply searched the files and dragged them onto a floppy disk. Now when I put a new usb drive in I simply put the floppy in and win 98 picks up the files it requires. I have several old computers with win It works on them all. Thank you very much. I was able to use the driver in our old Win 98 computer connected to a scientific instrument to retrieve files using the usb port.
Our old CD burning program was not working so I decided to use the usb in desperation. The usb port is not working in our Win 98 computer in the first place so I searched the internet for a driver. After the download I followed the instructions and it works great.
This is so helpful and I am so grateful to you sir! This was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for posting this information. I use an old Toshiba laptop for retro gaming. I wanted to connect my external Mb HDD to the one USB port on this laptop, I was doubtful if this would work, but as soon as I installed this driver and rebooted, my external was detected as a mass storage device and works great.
Thank you! I had been going around in circles beforehand. I need to retain an older PC in order to be able to program some of the older 2-way mobile and portable radio equipment which is still soldiering on. However, in the device manager it showed up as? But then when clicking and selecting update driver… Win98se found and loaded the general USB mass storage driver for it.
Nice… I can see the files as loaded under E: drive now. It works!!! I just pop the chip and plug it into a card reader and it works! Hi thanks for the wonderful help. It works. However, strangely it never asked for the Windows CD. I am able to read a recently purchased 32 GB drive. Thanks a ton. Would love to be in touch as I am a regular Win 98SE user courtesy my home recording setup that I started in I think my problem had to do with the usb I was using. I just picked up the cheapest 4gb one i could find at a nearby store and voila!
