Having the *hardware* plugged into your system only gets you half the way there. The 2nd half is making sure the operating system can use it. **What Is A Device Driver?** cache of http://www.karlsforums.com/faq/faq_devicedriver.htm If the driver exists in Device Manager (especially if it has a yellow mark next to it), Remove it. Reboot the system and Windoze will nag you to install the device driver. Use the disk that came with the hardware or (better yet) go to the manufacturer's website and get *the latest* Windows 98 driver available for that model. If you paid for hardware that didn't SPECIFICALLY say it supports Win9x, buy something that does.
