'USBNTMAP.SYS' and 'USBSTOR.SYS' not found
When it asks for usbntmap.sys and usbstor.sys files, you need to browse
(navigate) to the C:Windows\Options\Instal or CABS folder, where there *should* be a complete copy of your WinMe Setup files and the installation of the USB files should then continue. (The folder which you should be looking for [Instal or CABS] is the one containing a whole series of .cab files - including BASE2.CAB which contains the two required files.)

I have taken these steps, and it said I had successfully installed the
hardware (USB 2.0 Flash Drive), but it does not show up as an available drive in My Computer.

Jeepers! Nancy, wherever did you dig that thread from - it's over two years
old. Firstly, although your USB Flash Drive is USB 2.0, it will only perform at USB 1.x speeds as the WinMe drivers mentioned are for USB 1.x only. You will need extra hardware AND drivers (associated with that hardware) for it to work at USB 2.0 speeds under WinMe. However, back to your prime issue - drive not showing. Are you sure that the memory stick was properly formatted (Does it work [is it recognised] on another (e.g. XP) machine?) Also, take a look in Device Manager and see if any USB devices (or errors) are shown there. Do you have TweakUI installed? If so, you *may* have set a restriction on the available drive letters. Perhaps you might wish to try this little MS utility for checking-out your USB stuff. If you have a copy of the Win98 CD, then see the following URL and try the usbview.exe on the CD. (NB It's not on the WinME CD - but see below) "How to Use the Windows 98 USB Device Viewer Utility" http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;272584 You can download usbview.exe from MS at: ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/services/tec...SE/USBVIEW.EXE Alternatively, it still seems to be available from :- http://www.srigc.com/softdl.htm You'll find it about 2/3 rds down the page If all this fails, try a System Restore and roll-back to before you first plugged-in your USB stick. Then start over and make an exact note of all screen reports. HTH and good luck Mart "Nancy" wrote in message ...

Mike, that thought did go thru' my mind when I mentioned XP g
Mart "Mike M" wrote in message ... In addition to Mart's suggestions if the flash drive appears in the Device Manager but doesn't show in Windows Explorer check that the USB Flash Drive is formatted as either FAT or FAT32 and hasn't been formatted as NTFS. -- Mike Maltby |
