Windows system requirements
To use the USB FDD correctly, make sure that your system can at least support the
following requirements:
For Windows:
• Pentium 133 MHz or Faster
• 64 MB RAM
• 2 MB available hard drive space
• One available USB port
• CD or DVD drive
• Windows 98, 98SE, ME, 2000, or XP
Installing the drivers
Windows XP
To install the USB FDD drivers in Windows XP:
1 Connect the USB cable to the USB port on the computer.
2 Turn on your computer. After Windows XP automatically installs the drivers,
a Found New Hardware message appears next to the clock on the Windows
taskbar.
3 Because the USB FDD works with the Windows XP standard built-in driver,
Windows XP will automatically install the necessary driver files.
