Page: 19 / 134

Windows 98 does not have native support for USB
2.0, so you should use the latest drivers for your USB
host adaptor. These drivers must be provided by your
host adaptor manufacturer (or motherboard
manufacturer if the USB ports are on the motherboard).
You will also need drivers for your Seagate hard drive
if you are using the USB port in Windows 98 see

usb_drivers.html
PROBLEM
Dual-interface kits only: The drive is connected
using the IEEE 1394 cable and the system is
running Windows 98SE, but Windows 98SE fails
to detect it.
RESOLUTION
From Device Manager , click 1394 Bus Controller ,
and then click Settings . Select the Support Non-
Compliant Devices check box, and then reboot
your computer. See Microsoft Knowledgebase
Article 221823 for more information
