That should, I'd hope, work assuming your drivers are compatable with ME. Does the device specifically state that it's = Windows=20 ME compatable? If not then they may not have drivers for it that will = work=20 with the OS though you can often find drivers that have worked for other=20 people at driverguide.com (registration required) and there's a forum there = where you can ask for assistance.=20 I'm having serious doubts about the compatibility of the driver with ME. I was told a Win 98 compatible driver should also work with ME. I'll try driverguide.com. Thanks for your help, Galen. I'll probably be back trying to figure out how to install a new OS. Lydia |

A 98 driver generally will work with ME, in my experience I'd say at =
least 95% of the ones that I've used have worked. I'm actually using a 98 = driver in XP for my now long since un-supported web cam. I do hope that you're = able to find one that works. If you install another operating system I = highly recommend XP. One of it's greatest features is so many devices are recognized automatically. I was amazed when I first installed it and = saw that the Zip drive was recognized before the OS was even fully = installed. I'd recommend your laptop be at least 700 MHz and that you have at = least=20 256 MB of RAM though or it will run rather slowly. It will run probably but = it will not run very rapidly. I've installed it on CPUs as slow as 350 MHz = and 128 MB of RAM. Driverguide.com was no success.=20 Looking at the datasheet at Level1 for the Adapter I've got it really = looks like=20 there's a driver for EVERY other OS, but not ME. Only got 128MB of RAM. How will Windows 2000 do on that, do you think? Lydia |
