View Full Version : usb port on compaq
I installed a belkin high speed usb 2.0 5 port pci card
onto my compaq prolinea 575....I get as far as it
recognizes the hardware & 'it' tells me to put in a
windows disk...Im not sure what its talking about ( I have
windows 98 )...
I dont have a windows disk, I inherited this computer & I
didnt get any disks with it...

Hi Kim,
Press browse and browse to c:\windows\options\cabs or install folder. Most
probably you must have the windows files there.

Go to Start > Find > Files/Folders.
In the Named box type: Win98*.cab and Press Enter
or
type: *.cab and Press Enter
If you come up with a folder that has many .cab files, it may be the Windows setup
files placed on the drive. They are usually found in c:\windows\options\cabs but this
is not always the case. If they are the setup files, when asked for the CD, point to
that folder.
