Default PNY Attache 256 MB USB 2.0 flash drive

I bought the above mentioned drive last week, and downloaded the Win98
drivers (M20.zip) from PNY's website. I unzipped the file and ran the
..exe with no apparent problem. However, when I insert the flash drive,
W98 detects is and tries to find the drivers, but can't find anything
that is compatible. It calls ie a "USB 20X" drive.

The drive works fine under Win2000, WinXP and OS/2. Has anyone has
this problem with this drive? Any suggestions? I've tried pointing
the driver install to c:\program files\pny\attache 2.0 but it finds
nothing there of use. DOKHDC.INF (08/28/03), DOKUSB.INF (08/28/03),
MDOCUSB.SYS (08/28/03) , and MDOC.PDR (03/13/03) are in that
directory.

Hi Mark,

Could this be it?

From the PNY FAQ
http://www.pny.com/support/faqs/read...&model=Attaché

Is my Attaché plug and play compatible in Windows 98/98SE?

Answer
No. You must first install the drivers before you plug the Attaché into the
USB port. If you've plugged the Attaché in prior to installing the drivers,
simply remove this device through the Add/Remove Hardware portion of the
Control Panel and start over again.

Nope. I've already tried that a dozen times-- it still can't find the
drivers. That was the first place I looked.

Hi Mark,

If you have not already, go through the steps in FAQ 7.
http://www.pny.com/support/faqs/read...&model=Attaché

If this doesn't do it, I would suggest contacting PNY directly for support.

The "DOKxxx" file names strongly suggest that the flash drive is actually
a re-badged M-Systems DiskOnKey. I have used a couple of these on Win98
machines and each new hardware rev requires new drivers. Perhaps PMY's
doenloads do not actually correspond to the hardware you bought. I
agree with contacting PNY for new drivers. As a wild alternative, you
might try www.diskonkey.com.....
