I'm trying to be able to connect to my USB PNY brand thumb drive through DOS. I've got USBASPI.SYS and DI1000DD.SYS along with the boot files on a floppy. Can someone give me the exact CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files I would need to to assign the thumb drive to the G: drive and be able to access it? I know that DOS can see it, because it showed up on the boot screen once, but now I'm just getting the 'ERROR: Target USB Device Not Found.' And I don't think I have changed any configuration files.... I'm stumped.
