wireless networking
Hey Everyone,
I recently bought a wireless USB adapter for my desktop, however I am unable to install it because it requires drivers from my windows 98 second edition CD which I do not have anymore. Any suggestions on how to obtain another one? |

Any suggestions on how to obtain another one? search your hardrive for files ending in *.cab , these are the install files for win98 If the *.cab files are there, Haggis's suggestion will solve the problem. They're often in a folder called C:\Windows\Options\Cabs. If they aren't, it's possible that the required files are already installed. When the system asks for a file, tell it to look in C:\Windows and/or C:\Windows\System. -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Networking) Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see.
