How to Get W98 to Work with a Flash Drive

Operation of peripherals with earlier versions of Windows operating systems, such as Windows 98, are dependent on a component called the Win32 Driver Model (WDM). Unfortunately, Windows 98’s release was prior to the existence of many universal serial bus (USB) devices as well as some key improvements to USB technology. Hence, the Windows 98 WDM lacks the USB drivers needed to operate many modern USB devices including some flash drives. The solution to this problem is to update the WDM’s USB drivers for your Windows 98 operating system.

Instructions Determine your version of Windows 98

1 Right click with your mouse on the “My Computer” icon on your desktop.

2 On the menu that opens, identify and left click on “Properties.”

3.On the box that appears, left click on the “General” tab if it is not already visible.

4 Beneath the “System” heading will be the word “Version.” Next to it will be a number. If that number is 4.10.1998 your computer is running Windows 98 First Edition. If the number is 4.10.2222 your computer is running Windows 98 Second Edition. If the number is something else entirely, you are not running Windows 98 and this procedure is not correct for your system..

5 Note which version of Windows 98 you are running.
