w 98 doesn't recognize/install a USB 4 port hub
Please tell me how to make a W98 computer recognize a USB 4-port hub. I have
tried two, from different manufacturers, with no success. Upon initial plug-in the computer sees an installation process. With the 1st device it asked for a W98 CD -- which I don't have (second hand purchase). I do have 2 recovery CD's and 2 Office 2000 CD's provided with the purchase which I, previously, used successfully to restore operation after a crash; none of these satisfied the request for the W98 CD. When I tried the 2nd device, the Add New Hardware Wizard could not find a driver. The MS download website says there are no updates or servicepaks available to install (they were done earlier). The Hub manufacturers websites don't provide drivers or information. Can you help me or suggest another source? Thanks. |
