I bought a USB 1.1 FlashDrive (Apacer Handy Steno 1.1) and it works well with my new PC but it doesn't work with my 1997 PC. Its OS is Win2K and it can detect my flashdrive as only as "Unknown USB Device" (I tried to reinstall the driver but the result is the same).
The M/B in this PC is Gigabyte GA-586ATX2. It has only USB Jumper and and I have to buy a USB cable (with USB port) and plug it to that jumper by myself.

Thanks in advance and sorry for my poor English.

To Ryan :
I've already configured my BIOS to support the USB.
