USB external floppy drive
I have purchased an NEC USB UF000x from Dell for my old laptop to replace my
parallel floppy drive that is not working. I had W95 running on it and was told to upgrade to W98se so that the USB would be properly recognized. I upgrqaded to W98se, but the system is still requesting that a driver be installed for the new hardware - this is a USB floppy and supposedly there should be no driver required - and of course, I can't find one on the W98 disk or on MS or Dell websites. So....the usb floppy drive is not recognized. I also have an older Dell Dimension R400 that was running W95 - I upgraded this machine to W98se and tried the USB floppy plug in........same problem - looking for a driver. Please anyone help????? Help!!!!! |
