Win98SE and the CATC Netmate USB Ethernet adapter (modified 0 times) thbt Profile Has anyone had any experience with Win98SE and the CATC Netmate USB Ethernet adapter? Win98SE runs fine, but when I do anything network-related, it BSODs on me with a VxD error. Sometimes I'll be able to load a few web pages, other times it crashes on me immediately. I've done a reinstall of Win98SE, but I get the same problem again. And yes, I've installed the VIA 4-in-1 drivers and the USB Filter driver. Any ideas? Should I just get the SMC USB adapter that I've read about? Any help would be appreciated. 05-11-2001 14:27:07

RE:Win98SE and the CATC Netmate USB Ethernet adapter (modified 0 times) thbt Profile Oh, and one more thing... the VIA USB Filter driver seems to install successfully, but I can't find the VIAUSB.SYS file that comes with the driver anywhere in my C:\WINDOWS tree. Can someone with the Filter driver and a working USB Ethernet adapter verify for me that VIAUSB.SYS isn't in their \WINDOWS subtree? 05-11-2001 14:32:36

RE:Win98SE and the CATC Netmate USB Ethernet adapter (modified 0 times) redwood Profile I have , 4 of those, Regal, Belkin, CATC inside... mixed success, but, I bought my Cheap, so, I got what I paid for...since, I've upgraded a couple, and enjoy the better success... USB adpt, Do make differences... but, good luck, you make get it working well enough.. or, perhaps someone here will have a solution... 05-12-2001 17:21:35

RE:Win98SE and the CATC Netmate USB Ethernet adapter (modified 0 times) thbt Profile It sort of works if I boot Windows without the USB Ethernet plugged in, then plug it in after it boots. I still get blue screens if I use the network for too long, though (like when I tried to upgrade to IE5.02). Can anyone please, please, please tell me how to manually install the VIA USB Filter driver? I have no idea how VIAUSB.SYS fits in the scheme of things, since the install program won't work properly... :( 05-17-2001 16:17:03
