Then I stand re-directed, you use these things all the time. Though it
might be prudent to know the particular device the querier is using..

| They still sell the Sandisk (plain-jane/regular) Cruzer 1GB. Got it at

I've

is
| a
| 1MB driver package specific to 98SE for it gotten from the cruzer
website.
| Load it, reboot, then plug in the Cruzer. Works natively in ME/XP.
