Hi Fred,
When you say that your PC operating system is Windows 98, is it just '98' or '98SE'?
Since you have USB ports on your main PC, you may already have the necessary drivers installed. It would be a case of obtaining a usb device and 'suck-it-and-see'

If you decide to take the USB Transfer route, but don't seem to have the necessary drivers, I can email them to you.

Willum
