Hi, I recently purchased a toshiba libretto 70ct. on ebay. The guy who sold it recently upgraded it to windows 98SE and all. Everything works great except that he did not install the driver for the floppy disk that came with it. No drivers for a cd-rom either. I purchased a usb cardbus thinking maybe that has luck but I can't do anything without installing drivers. How can I install drivers with no hardware? Please help. I can't even go online because I need to install driver for my network adapter. Please Help!
You could pull the hard drive out and put it in another computer - copy drivers to it - then put it back in. I'm assuming it's a laptop - so you'll need a 44 to 40 pin adapter.
Win98 needs drivers for the USB pen drives. Does the laptop have onboard LAN? Or maybe if it has a serial port, you could use a null modem cable and transfer the files from another computer...
Not if it is a Disgo. They were one of the first, so Windows 98SE recognises them natively. Anyway, since when does a floppy need drivers? Is it a USB floppy?
That's what I was thinking. And CD-ROM drives are natively supported, too. I have yet to come across a version of 98SE that doesn't have OAKCDROM.
Hi, I can't seem to find any 40 pin adapter. The toshiba libretto is a mini laptop any hardware is external, the floppy disk drive is a PCMCIA pc card drive. Each time I insert the card it saids the driver Y-E Data is not installed. The USB card I bought Windows 98SE can't read that. I even tried to attach my old Iomega Zip 100 drive through the serial port and nothing happens.
