Anyone get one of those disgo usb things?
Got one the other day and wanna use it on win95 but there doesnt seem to be any drivers....they start from win98.
Any ideas anyone?

...Windows 95 OSR 1 doesn't have *any* USB support whatsoever, Windows 95 "B" (aka OSR 2+ - you can tell because 95 "B" has the startup screen that mentioned Internet Explorer, while "A" doesn't... it also does a scandisk when you don't shut down correctly, which "A" doesn't) does have *some*, if I remember correctly. Depending on which flavour you have, you may be out of luck unless you're willing to upgrade.

Sorry...

Yup it does a scandisc alright so guessing its B...never heard of this A B lark mind you:) any ideas since it is B?

...maybe the best thing is for you to read a bit on the subject.

This allows you to identify *exactly* which flavour of Windows 95 you have:

This discusses the level of USB support in Windows 95 compared to 98 and ME:
