Hi

If you find anything out, please let me know. Same
problem with a generic AMD Athlon with Windows 98SE.
Can't find driver to download.

THE PROBLEM is the system DOES NOT DETECT ANY of 4 Flash

Drives, and I CAN'T INSTALL THE DRIVERS into it.

When I put any of the 4 Flash Drives into any USB port,

nothing happens.

Then I go: Control Panel Add New Hardware and the

system finds a new device.
However, when I "browse" to the folders with the

Flash .INF files and/or
the other Set-up files, the operating system FAILS to

install the drivers.
It leaves a big "yellow question mark" in the Device

Manager.

I'm trying to install and HAVE ALL the drivers on CD-ROM

for these Flash drives.
1. PNY Attache 64 MEG Flash Disc
2. PNY Attache 128 MEG Flash Disc USB 2.0
3. SanDisk Cruzer mini 128 MEG
4. AVB 64 MEG
----------------
I went to the Compaq site and went through their

Troubleshooting recommendations for my machine. The best
suggestion I received was to check the BIOS to see of
Advanced setting for the Legacy Plug and Play support was
enabled. It was.
----------------

I've installed these same Devices and Drivers in many

other Win98(SE) machines.
I've installed them in many family and friends Win98(SE)

machines, and had no problems.
I've install them in many different Win98(SE) machines in

three different classrooms, and had no problems.
It's only in this Compaq 7595 with DVD Player that I'm

experiencing problems.

Does anyone have any recommendations/suggestions as what

to pursue next?

Many thanks, in Advance.
