Am using a USB 2.0 Mobile Dock station attached to laptop to have a serial port. XP keeps saying it can&#8217;t read the modem(Cable) attached to 98 Sys. My 2 Wdw&#8217;s 98 Sys can talk to each other via direct cable connection, but not XP.<br \/>\nHave also searched for Wdws 98SE USB drivers to update to USB 2.0 from standard 98SE USB drivers to install with no internet access from those systems, so need to download to CD\/DVD. Any thoughts? Have spent many many days searching and attempting this.
