Driver Installation 

 

*** Important information for PCMCIA users *** 

 

• 

You do not need to install driver if you are running 
Windows 95 or Windows 98.  The Windows will install 
its default driver for our PCMCIA card, which is called 
the “Standard IDE/ESDI Hard Disk Controller”. After 
the Windows installs it, you can find it in “Device 
Manager” and under “Hard Disk Controllers”. 

 

*** Important information for USB users *** 

 

• 

Before you go on. We just want to let you know that 
our USB devices do not support Windows 95 and 
Windows NT. 

 
 

For USB users: 

1. Make sure your ExDrive is powered on and the USB cable 

is attached, then plug the USB cable into your computer. 

 

2. The Windows 98 will find the new hardware when you 

plug in the device at the first time, and it will ask you to 
insert the driver diskette.  Just put the floppy diskette into 
the floppy disk drive.
