I've got an annoying, frustrating problem on a computer running Win98SE. Whenever 
I insert a Corsair USB flash drive, it detects it and asks for the Windows 98 SE 
disk. When I insert it and click OK, I get a BSOD saying:

Invalid VxD dynamic link call from NTMAPHLP(02)+ 00000002 to device "004F", Service 
1.

Can anyone tell me what's wrong here? What's so annoying is that it worked fine just 
a few days ago.

Tip: Run a free scan for common Windows errors ad

The Corsair works perfectly. It was a problem of my own making and I also solved it on my own. So, thanks to ME!

The solution is probably to install the software (which includes all .vxd files that the device needs) before plugging in the hardware device. The device probably came with a CD containing the software the device needs. Try installing the software (i.e. run the program SETUP.EXE on the CD) before attaching the USB device. Make sure you install the software intended for Windows 98 - these CD's sometimes include software for other versions of Windows too. Sometimes the software is available as a download from the device manufacturer's website, in case you don't have the CD.
