I'm trying to use the a USB DOS driver (duse.exe) to get a USB Floppy (3.5" 1.44mb) working on a DOS system (MS DOS 6.22). The drivers install ok and it recongnizes the USB port now (the disk drive light comes on when I plug it in. But I can't figure out how to actually use the drive. It doesn't seem to want to map it to any specific drive letter. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried the SEC=x command to set the sector size for your drive. Which are 512, 1024 & 2048 The default is 512 so try 1024 & 2048

So the entry becomes DOSE.EXE SEC=1024 for example (Thats a space between DOSE.exe & SEC=1024)
