I've tried usbaspi.sys, but this reports that no port has been assigned.
Duse 4.9 reports that no drives have been assigned. A third method would
perhaps be to use Iomega Guest (which I have) with aspiuhci.sys (for USB
1.1, aspiehci for 2), but I can't find a free source for the latter.

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?

Best Wishes,
Eric T.
