Re: [Freedos-user] Using Verbatim 256M USB Stick Flash Drive?
On Eric Auer's advice I changed the i/o address to device=usbaspi0.sys /P=A000 so that it's "more out of the way from old ISA address space". usbaspi seems quite happy with this.

Re: [Freedos-user] Using Verbatim 256M USB Stick Flash Drive?
Hi Johnson, Many thanks to you and to Eric Auer. The flash drive now works using the oldest controller (usbaspi0.sys) from the usb driver disk on Johnson's site http://johnson.tmfc.net/freedos . I tried my luck and added /V /P=0A00 and the device fired up straight away. Eric Auer's pcisleep http://www.coli.uni-saarland.de/~eric/stuff/soft/ was useful in showing details of the pci usb controller from DOS, as were throttle.exe /p : http://www.oldskool.org/pc/throttle/ and also Craig's pci diagnostic software: http://members.datafast.net.au/dft0802/downloads.htm Thanks indeed for your help Eric, Johnson and Blair. It's greatly appreciated, as I absolutely hate getting stuck when set a challenge.

It looks like the BIOS isn't assigning an I/O port and your web page has this crucial information (the laptop's bios editing facilities are woefully sparse): << 4) In some PC, UHCI's I/O port is not assigned by BIOS. In this case, specify I/O port by /P option. /P=xxx0 : UHCI I/O address I'm not sure how to use "/P=xxx0", Johnson. Do I enter "device=usbapsiX.sys /p=0" as I only have one usb drive?

Joihnson's Lam's web site states: << 4) In some PC, UHCI's I/O port is not assigned by BIOS. In this case, specify I/O port by /P option. /P=xxx0 : UHCI I/O address Sorry, Johnson: just realized that what I need is to assign an i/o ADDRESS. Windows uses I/O 10C0 - 10DF. So am I safe to use usbaspiX.sys /P=10C0 ? How do I know that the start address is safe / won't conflict with other devices?

I tried every possible driver combination from your disk, and nothing worked. USBASPI.SYS works fine with my 128 mb lexar drive on the same platform. The PNY drive is supposed to be backwards compatible to USB 1.l. I guess some of these drives just don't work with the current DOS drivers. Charlie __ Yahoo! Mail for Mobile Take Yahoo!

Blair replied: Try getting the version of usbaspi.sys official from panasonic (linked to from several sites), as many versions found elsewhere are old and obsolete. Hi, thanks for that. Yes, I've downloaded the aspi manager usbaspi.sys from Panasonic and tried it with the driver di1000dd.sys, having visited http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=10215 . config.sys included the lines: device= ... himem.sys device= ... emm386.sys dos=high,umb device= ... usbaspi.sys device= ... di1000dd.sys With switch /e (v2) or /o ("newer v1.x"), the controller was not found. Without switches or with /u ("older v1.x"), the controller was found but it reported: "ERROR: UHCI I/O port not assigned" (which is hopeful) and because of this, the driver then reported "UHCI/OHCI/EHCI host controller not found." and could not proceed. The laptop has an Intel 430TX chipset and in Windows successfully uses an "Intel82371AB/EB PCI to USB Universal Host Controller" uhcd.sys. There are no USB options in BIOS. Though the stick is usb v2, the port is v1.x, most likely "older 1.x". As I said, I've also tried Duse 4.9 but no drive letter was assigned. And though I have a copy of Iomega Guest, I haven't found a free source of aspiuhci.sys (it's said to come with Ghost). Anyhow, thanks again Blair. Any ideas, anyone?
