Hi, I'm back with another question. I have a Dell 128mb memory key
that I would like to use to transfer some old files to my new computer.
The old computer is a Dell Dimension L500r, running Win98 SE. Thus far
I cannot get the old computer to do anything but recognize the
existence of the new memory key. When I plug it into the port, nothing
happens. It does appear in Device Manager as "Dell Memory Key" with a
yellow question mark in front of it and with no properties listed, and
I get the message that "drivers for this device are not installed."
Even though I don't think it needs drivers to run, I did click on the
Reinstall Drivers button, to no avail.

Is there any way to make my old computer recognize this memory key, or
should I just go ahead and transfer my files another way?

Thanks in advance for your help.
Carly
