USB 2.0 is a very new technology.  Therefore, most computers do not have native support for 
USB 2.0. You must install a USB 2.0 adapter card for your External COMBO drive to run at 
USB 2.0 speeds.  If you do not have a USB 2.0 card installed, this COMBO drive will still 
work connected to a standard USB 1.1 connection, but the speed will be limited to USB 1.1 
speed.  After installing a USB 2.0 adapter card, follow the steps below for your operating 
system to verify the USB 2.0 card is installed properly. 
 

Windows® 98SE/ME users: 

Right click My Computer and select Properties. 
Select the Device Manager tab. 
If there is a yellow exclamation point next to Universal Serial Bus Controllers, contact the 
card’s manufacturer for help. 
 

Windows® 2000/XP users: 

Right click My Computer and select Properties. 
Select the hardware tab. 
Click the Device Manager button. 
If there is a yellow exclamation point next to Universal Serial Bus Controllers, contact the 
card’s manufacturer for help. 

 
 

Instructions on Installing the USB Driver for Windows 98SE: 

This USB COMBO drive is a Plug&Play USB storage device.  If you are using any of the 
following Operating Systems: such as Windows ME, Windows 2000, and Windows XP, all 
you need to do is plug it to your computer properly.  Then the COMBO drive is ready to use.  
 
Whereas, a PC using the Windows 98SE OS will not recognize this USB COMBO drive if 
you are installing this drive for the first time.  Therefore, you will need to install a driver into 
your computer for this USB COMBO drive to properly install to your computer. 
 
You can find the USB driver for Windows 98SE OS either in the included Floppy Disc or in 
the USB driver for Windows 98 OS directory of the Burning Software kit.  Please follow your 
OS instructions to install the driver for this USB COMBO drive, then restart your computer. 
 

CAUTION: 

Please limit your recording speed to 4X or 8X if your computer is only equipped with a 
slower speed USB1.1 interface or if your PCMCIA port does NOT support Card Bus interface.  
Attempting high speed writing with a slow interface can cause frequent buffer overloading 
and writing pauses (when the Busy LED is blinking) that could adversely affect recording 
quality.
