you may need to create a few 2 Gb partitions on a stick and format them with fat32 to be used with w98. normally i dont recommend partitioning out a USB stick but in this case you may have no choice.

im 98% (no pun intended) sure that is the issue. 98 cannot see ntfs which is likely the problem.

thanks .. ntfs no way .. but i have a survivor 16GB from about 1997 and with this i have no problems (16GB works) ..
then i will try with your tipp the newer ones (2011) - the usb-driver was installed, but i don't saw the drive - perhaps with 2GB-partitions - but it would me very surprising ..

it would be the simplest to get a older corsair-stick (this works 100%)
