    Hi! I have a Win98 system with USB ports and USB drives. I also have some flash drives I want to use and the proper drivers for them. Now, some, not all, seem to work. One is 32GB and has a FAT32 file system, and the other is 4GB and I think it has a FAT32 file system. However, some do work. Any help would be appreciated.

    Well...when I insert the 32GB flash drive, the driver installs. I think I tried the 4GB flash drive before, but its driver didn't install this time. I have the drivers I need on the desktop, but the CD drive is broken, so I can't install drivers from Windows. Other flash drives work. The 32GB drive is a no-name drive, and the 4GB drive is a GigaWare drive. I'll try them again, as I have two of the 32GB ones.

    I reformatted the Gigware drive. Maybe it'll work now. :)
