Hello.
Everytime I try to install the Opti 82c861 pci usb card
into my computer (Win 98) the hardware wizard recognizes
it and tells me to insert the win98 cd, which I do.

However, when I load the cd, the wizard says it has found
the driver located in C:\windows\inf\usb.inf??? even
though I click on "locate from cd rom" each time.

I see the driver start to load and then my computer
completely freezes. I have to manually shut it down. This
happens everytime I try to load the usb driver. I've tried
every available pci slot. Each time the computer restarts,
the wizard recognizes the usb card. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

What is/are the operating system requirements for installation of this card?
