I accidently uninstalled a usb driver while using add/remove programs.

How do I reinstall it. There were two USB files. One was a USB Storage
adapter FX (SM1) the other was a driver.

TIA



XP has it's own USB2 and USB1 drivers,
and with SP2, patches were included.
With device attached to USB input, in device manager remove device,
close all windows and reboot, XP should reinstall it.
If not and your device has specific drivers (It shouldn't?)
Go to the devices manufacturers site and click the support link
follow to downloads link, and download required drivers for your
specific device - All hardware manufacturers have a support/update/
patches/download link.

THanx all for the replies.

I found out that it reinstalled the driver on its own after I moved to
another port.

However I have not been able to download the sp2.
Nevertheless I did get the drive back up but it is an 80 gig with 5
partitions. Only one partition shows up at 7.8 gig and > I safely
uninstalled it but it will not go back on. THis is time consuming and
later I may try to reboot or take the system files off the hard disk. I
will have to reinstall it on the original machine reboot the win 98. This
is not 2.0 usb and it crashes.
I have been trying to get IE5.0 but I can only use the ie4.0 that came
with the machine. All firewalls and other software I was accostomed to
have been obsolete so it is a tedious process.



The main concern now is that for some unspecified reason you are
unable to download SP2?
What is not clear why you suspect the USB drive will function on Win98?
You typed: "I suspect it is due to a backup of the execbat file
from the original."???? Nope, you going the wrong road, and I can't
figure what line you are pursuing?
This is www.download.com being an excellent site for software
of every kind for every occasion, you will have to register, but it's
free.
Your 80gb USB hard drive, there maybe corruption? But it is possible
to extract and recover any data that may seemingly be lost on that
external drive.

www.download.com

I suspect your external HD is corrupt.
And why can't you download SP2? - It is Vital.


The hard drive is an internal drive converted into an external drive. The
back up is only a drag and drop of the actual drive I have been using for 8
years. I bought the usb2.0 converter thinking I could use it with windows 98
only to find out it meant windows 98se. Now it looks as if I may have to
reformat if I want to use this harddrive or just knock the walls down. I was
hoping to load linux on to a partition.

as far as sp2, ...I have it ...and it came with the laptop. I will continue
trying to reinstall my other computer to the way it was last week Win98
pentium II 350MHz IE 5.5. (I cracked the fan blade on the cooling unit
while blowing it with an air compressor and used another pentium II but do
not know why it causes a load fault in the second stage memory load.)

Thanks
