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 By Chris Ray Follow.

Or even a 98 machine for that reason? The reasons for using W98 vary from person to person but some of the most common reasons are: Retro Gaming Programs that only work on 98 Working with floppies and ATA drives Nostalgia So, without further ado, let's jump into it!
This process is relatively simple but it is important to have a few key components. After the installation, however, you can switch to USB. First, you are going to want to download the new driver on your modern computer. If this link isn't working just send me a message and I can send it to you directly After the driver is on your modern computer, you need to transfer it to the W98 PC.
Remember where you put the file and move on to the next step without running it. Once in properties, select the "Device Manager" tab and scroll down to the bottom. Expand the "Universal Serial Bus controllers" and delete all of the drivers. Now you can close out the properties menu and return to the desktop. Did you make this project? Share it with us!

Predictably, Kingston offers no support for their devices in Windows 98 so no driver can be installed to pick up the flash drive. 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. Thank you very much.
