Installing pen drives into DOS and '97

[Bobby2004]

I have repeatedly tried to install my JetFlash 128 MB pen drive in DOS without any success. After going through numerous Web pages, I came to the conclusion that the Panasonic driver combined with the "Mottu Hairu" driver might be the best bet. Accordingly I have included the following lines in my config.sys ( after downloading and placing the driver files in the root directory of my DOS boot drive viz. a:\ ):

device=usbaspi.sys
device=di1000dd.sys

however the drive is not getting recognized. I get the error messages:

Target USB device not found

from the first driver and

ASPI Manager not installed

from the second one.

The physical aspects all have to be fine because I am getting the drive in W2KP.

On Windows 97 ( i.e. Windows 95 revision B ), I understand it has a built in driver for USB but the pen drive is still not being recognized.

What am I doing wrong?

I think the problem is Dos doesn't understand what a USB port is. Could you try with a serial to usb adaptor??

My pen drive requires a specific driver to use it with Win98se, so at a guess, you are looking for a Win95 driver to do the same thing...

And I'd guess that such a thing is unlikely to exist, seeing that Win95 is so old.

However, I may well be wrong.
