Recently I decided to use the USB ports on my computer. I bought a 4GB memory stick, which I tried to connect the windows 98.
I have installed the Generic USB Mass Storage Device Driver (NUSB 3.3 available at http://www.mdgx.com/spx/NUSB.EXE). The device was datected (Sony USB mass storage) and I was able to read (see) the contect of USB stick, but I was unable to copy anything onto HDD. The activity LED of flash drive blinked, but the copy progress dialog did not appear . Destination file was created, but had a size 0kb.
So I decided to use Windows ME. I didn't need to install the Generic USB Mass Storage Device Driver on this system. The device was detected and I was able to read (see) and copy the files, but only the small files (about 10MB). When I try to copy larger file then after some time there is error displayed (file not available). Drive assigned to the unit for a moment disappear and appear again, but then you can only see the contents and device's LED is blinking all the time. The device is usable again after system restart. It is possible to copy files again, but only small ones.
Could someone advise how to solve this issue. Is this a software or hardware issue?
