driver issues!

[fragile_weed]

Please someone help me........I had my hp digital camera
and my lexmark all in one installed on my pc. We started
having a lot of problems and decided to just reformat the
hard drive and start all over. Now, we can't install our
drivers for the camera or printer. We get the message
that USBNTMAP.SYS cannot be located. What happened to our
drivers, can it be fixed?

usbntmap.sys and usbstor.sys are, with most other usb related files, in
the "cab" files in the Win9x folder on the Win Me CD and also in either
Windows\Options\Cabs or the Windows\Options\Install folder and not
directly visible in Explorer. Look for the folder containing the file
BASE2.CAB. When the installer asks for files point it towards the folder
containing the file BASE2.CAB.

See MS KB 265371 - "How to Extract and Replace a Protected File in
Windows Me" (http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=265371) for details of how
to manually extract files from the cab set. Alternatively use MSConfig |
General | Extract File... and follow the prompts to extract a new copy of
the required files to your windows\system32\drivers folder . Most USB
related files can be found in BASE2.CAB although some are located in
other cabs.

Alternatively you could visit
http://www.usb-drivers.com/drivers/63/63237.htm and download usb-WinMe.exe
which contains Win Me's usb related files. Extract the files you want and
put them in windows\system32\drivers.
