Sorry, I didn't make myself clear... I am looking for a windows 98 driver, not the xp/2k driver ccs supply.

Cheers

The CCS driver, works with W98 as well, but requires that you manually install HID support, since it is not automatically loaded in the OS on W98. The readme for the driver, covers this.

Thanks Ttelmah and GreenPic,

I was looking for CDC drivers, not HID. CCS state in the cdc include files that they don't support win 95 or 98... but it turns out they do! I found the correct .inf files supplied by ccs and it's working.

Cheers

CCS has 98/ME CDC drivers.

See
C:\program files\picc\drivers\cdc9Xpt1.inf
and
C:\program files\picc\drivers\cdc9Xpt2.inf

(There are two parts)

There may be a flaw in the way CCS distributes the CDC INF files in that the 98/ME and 2000/XP INF are in the same directory, so Windows may get confused by that - so try moving cdc9Xpt1.inf and cdc9Xpt2.inf to a different directory.
