Superlink Software for USB networking cable from netlinker problem
 

I bought a netlinker usb 2.0 datalink/network cable for file transfers
from my laptop to my Win98SE desktop. They include a program called
superlink to do the transfers. After I installed the software on
win98SE it trys to load a driver that doesn't exist on the install
disk or on the windows98se install disk when I plug it into my USB
port(driver called vnic.sys). Support seems to be non-existant for
this software. It says it is supported under 98SE but I can't get it
to work cause of the driver problem. Has anybody had luck with this
thing good or bad. System is a Emachine 300mz celeron from the late
90's.

Thanks in advance...

Steve, if I'd noticed your post first, I might not have joined you with the same problem!

Were you able to solve it? The install on a WinXP machine works fine, and transfers between two WinXP machines works fine.

On my installation disc there was a zipped file which had an "install.exe" file which seemed to work with W98SE. When I plugged in the cable, Windows asked for a "vnic.sys" file, which I finally found via the internet (although I can't be sure it's the RIGHT file). When I pointed to the location of that file, the W98SE install proceeded.

However, whenever I try to access the other computer (which has the files I want to move to the W98SE machine), I get an error message of "device not loaded."

The transfers between XP machines is simple and fast, so I'm hoping you now know the secret of a W98SE install!

install.
