Using Your Hi-Speed USB Flash Disk
To use the Hi-Speed USB Flash Disk, you simply plug it into your computer’s USB
port. Windows ME, 2000, XP and above versions all support the Microsoft USB
Mass Storage driver needed to detect and run the device. However, if you have a
Windows 98, you will need to run the USB Flash Disk Utility Setup that will also
install the needed USB mass storage driver. The UFD Utility program allows you to
make use of the security and partitioning features of the Hi-Speed USB Flash Disk.
Refer to the section of this manual for installing the USB Flash Disk Utility program.

Plugging the USB Flash Disk
Once you plug in your Hi-Speed USB Flash Disk, Windows will assign a drive letter
to the device and will usually designate it as a Removable Disk. You work with the
drive just like another disk drive or floppy diskette. Click My Computer to see all
the available drives in your computer.
Note: If Windows prompt you for the Generic USB Hub driver when you plug in the
device for the first time in a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port, you simply direct the USB host
driver location to the C:\Windows\System32\Drivers directory.
To make sure if the device is properly installed, click Start-Control Panel-System-
Device Manager and go to the Universal Serial Bus Controllers. Check if there is
USB Mass Storage Device and Generic USB Hub installed.
This Hi-Speed USB Flash Disk is a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compliant device and is
recommended that you plug it into a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port. Whenever you plug
the disk into a non-Hi-Speed USB port, Windows will show an alert message at the
taskbar telling you that it is plugged into a non-Hi-Speed USB hub. You can still
continue to use the disk but it will run at a reduced speed.
