Comment: Hi! Trying to get USB on my Toshiba Satellite 220CS laptop with Ms-Dos 6.22 working!!! I'm using the "Hairu drivers", with the files "Usbaspi.sys" & "Di1000dd.sys", and have only added the following lines to my config.sys:
device=Usbaspi.sys
device=Di1000dd.sys The usb-memory I try to use (Sony MicroVault 128mb with additional MemoryStick Slot & a 16mb MemoryStick) is found as just a "Sony memory", but the computer hangs in the end with the following information: Available ID=0
ID 0=HD .. sony Storage Media
#1 : ???
Divide Overflow
I've read the following in another topic here at Computing.net:
"Divide overflow often occurs when you try to access a hard drive larger than the operating system can accomodate." But... How do I fix this so I can use the memory in Ms-Dos 6.22??? I find it very odd that 128mb is "larger than the operating system can accomodate"!!! Any ideas or solutions???

Reply: (edit)Try putting these lines as first two entriesin config.sys, then the USB device should be allocated resources prior to any memory configuration: device=usbaspi.sys /v
device=di1000dd.sys
Also if you have an XP PC create an ms-dos boot floppy, as this one is based on 'WinME DOS' and add entries as above

Reply: (edit)Nope... the same problem!!! Also tried creating a windows 98 boot-floppy, and put the lines in the config.sys on this floppy, and boot with it on our "450mhz, 128mb ram tower-pc with windows 98" but I just got the same error!!!

Reply: (edit)The mata haira version is out of date, the Panasonic v2.20 is the last update I can find. "USBASPI ASPI Manager for USB mass-storage Version 2.20 (C)Copyright Panasonic Communications Co., Ltd. 2000-2004"
If that fails then try the 'A P Soft - Point Enablers' linked on same page, demo available.

Reply: (edit)Nope... I think the problem is in the di1000dd.sys , Is there any suitable replacement for this file??? Also, I can't read the usb memory any more because I formatted it on my Windows 98 Computer T_T!!! How can I "re-format" it as an "older" ms-dos disk!?

Reply: (edit)Wow, I got it working now =D!!! I used an "Ubuntu Linux install cd" to re-partition it to fat16 and it worked!!! The only problem now is that sometimes, when I change drive (just write d: for SmartMedia or e: for USB-Memory) the computer just hangs and the "pointer/command/whatever-the-dos-input-is-called" just goes black or like... disappears!!!

Reply: (edit)Sorry, I'm totally spamming!!! But... I got it working with the "DAT.exe" driver, not directly from the boot-disk, but when I copied the "sys-file" to replace di1000dd.sys to the c:\drive and edited c:\config.sys!!! No bugs, lags, hangings or something like that either =D!!! Thanks for all help!!!
