Do IHVs have to build their own USB storage support for Windows 98 Gold and Windows 98 Second Edition?
Yes. These earlier operating systems do not provide native USB storage support because the USB storage specification was not finalized during the development phase of these versions of Windows. For information and guidelines about developing USB storage support, see the USB storage sample driver in the Microsoft Knowledge Base Article Q257751 located at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?
