Help with USB hang, raid drivers
Hi,
I've got win98SE thats worked for quite awhile, although recently when I boot up and the modem is plugged in the USB port, the computer hangs right after the win98SE splash screen disappears. I then have to turn the computer off and boot into safe mode and shutdown, unplug the modem, then finally reboot into regular win98. I have looked in Device Manager after rebooting into safe mode and found no 'unknown devices' or question marks to delete. If I plug the modem in *after booting up, then my firewall asks if its ok, I click ok, and the modem works. The printer USB connection will also cause the same thing. This just happened recently but I can't pinpoint what is going on. ------------------- Secondly, I have to do a clean install of win98 on *another disk that has a Promise RAID controller on it. I know that when doing a clean install of XP you have to hit F6 at a certain moment and stick the driver in during setup--or, you can do it later when the software wizard pops up. Is there something similar with win98 I need to look out for? --- Thanks for any help. I've considered doing a quick reinstallation for the first problem, but I wanted to see if anyone knew of some obvious USB problem to alert me to first. itchy |
