WARNING: Formatting your drive will result in loss of data.

To install a drive on your computer for Windows 98 via the USB port

you must download the drivers from CRU's website (www.CRU-

DataPort.com). On the left side of the page you will see a link titled

Support. Click on Support, then USB Drivers, and select the Win-

dows 98SE USB drivers link. Download the Win98 file and follow the

instructions on the website to install it. (Windows ME does not require

a special driver).

Plug the USB DataPort

250 into your computer.

The Device Driver Wizard will pop up. Click on next. The "recom-

mended" option will be selected: hit next. The wizard will be set to

install the software automatically. Hit next and the wizard will ask

where to look for the driver. Select the directory that you opened the

driver into or select the primary drive and let the computer find it.

Once the driver installation is completed hit close.

Right Click on My Computer and select Properties.

Select the Device Manager tab.

Click on the + beside Disk Drives.

Right click on your drive and select Properties.

Select the Settings tab and place a check beside Removable.

Once your computer has booted up you should see an additional icon

on your Task Bar. Double click My Computer. Your new drive

should now be listed. Double click on the drive. If it is a new drive or

a drive with an incompatible format, it will ask you to format it. Click

Yes. A new window will appear. At the top the capacity of your drive

will be listed, directly below that will be a section titled Format Type.

In this section you will select Full and select Start. Read and follow

the instructions to finish setting up your drive. REMEMBER, format-

ting your drive will result in loss of data.
