Recognizing a flash drive
Posted by BudV on March 3rd, 2006


I have a 1G flash drive plugged into a USB port on my Win95 system. How do
I get the system to recognize the drive?

Oops! I just noticed the 2/23 conversation on USB. I'll pursue that first,
and come back here if I need more help.

You may not be able to.

Start by finding out whether the manufacturer has a driver that
supports Win95. Many don't bother supporting anything before Win98SE.

It is very unlikely that you can.
Some versions of Win95 had very limited USB support, some had no
support at all.
See the minimum requirements for the device as the minimum specified
is often Win98 SE.

probably no support at all unless you upgrade to win98(se)
