Have you checked your recovery disk? Look for a folder called Win9x and see if that contains the Win Me cab set. The problem here is that recovery disks are produced by the computer manufacturer's rather than Microsoft and their composition varies. Since you received a recovery disk with your PC when you bought it and this can be used to restore the PC to the state it was in when purchased the company concerned has fulfilled their obligations to Microsoft. As for solving you more immediate problem, I have no other suggestion. At one time the driver files required for Win Me to install usb 1 ports were available for download from the net (from a third party site, not Microsoft) but that is no longer the case. They have either been removed because of copyright problems or because Win Me is now getting on a bit with many less users than four or five years ago. You could of course contact the computer manufacturer as they are legally obliged to provide support for Win Me as part of their contract with Microsoft. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Erika wrote: Mike M wrote: Are you really certain about that? Is it perhaps in a folder on a different partition? If you really don't have BASE2.CAB and the rest of the Win Me cab files then you really have been screwed by the company that manufactured your PC - I just hope I never buy one from the same company. Unlikely of course as I build my own but such deliberate action by the company is disgraceful. Well, when I was trying to install this thing and it kept asking for the WIN-ME cd, that is exactly how I felt! I paid for a legit copy of the OS and it should be available to me. Of course, that was 4 years ago. Live & learn. Anyway, I just searched again and no dice. The cab files are probably on the system recovery disks but they're not accessible unless you know where they are. So now what? |

I found all the files I needed and put them with the system DLLs. I removed the device, restarted the computer, and windows found everything. It was very smooth. -- Hugs, Erika |
