Installing an external Hard Drive

[sloca]

Hello,
My WD external hard drive will not install on windows 98. There is no problem with the hard drive. I use it on other computers and have used it on this on in the past. What is the problem now?

How big is it?

Also, how is it formatted? FAT32, NTFS?

Do other USB devices work on this PC?

Is this drive powered by USB, or by a wall adapter? If USB powered, try another USB port and try powering it with a wall adapter.

Are you able to boot from a floppy drive at all? If so, you might want to look at bootdisk.com.
