2. See below for Windows OS
information, or page 7 for
Macintosh OS information.
These sections provide
instructions about how to:
• Install drivers

one time. After that, you can use
the drive by just connecting the
USB cable.
Windows OS
Installing drivers for your
operating system (OS)
Windows XP/2000 Pro/Me
operating systems have built-in,
up-to-date drivers for a USB
interface. You don’t need to install
any drivers if you are using one of
these operating systems, but make
sure you have downloaded and
installed the latest service packs
from Microsoft to ensure that you
have the latest drivers available
for your OS.
Note. Certain OEM installations of
Windows Me call for a file named
USBNTMAP.SYS while attempting to
load drivers for the portable drive. This
file can be located on the Windows Me
installation or recovery CD in the
WIN9x\BASE2.CAB folder.
Windows 98SE: When you connect
the drive to your computer,
Windows 98SE displays the Add
New Hardware wizard. This means
the wizard needs to find the USB
drivers included on the Seagate
Utility Toolkit CD. Follow these
steps to install the drivers:
1. Insert the Seagate Utility
Toolkit CD in your computer’s
CD-ROM drive.
2. Click the Next button. The
wizard displays a screen with
two options.
