Mr-8 CF readers win98

[22Fretstick]

First has anyone got the MR-8 to work with Win98 USB port? I would think if you can run a driver to read a CF card reader/writer the same port should work for the MR-8.
Also anyone find CF card readers that wont read MR-8 formated flash cards?
I seen a CF reader/writer that advertised it only reads DOS formated cards.

I just purchased a MR-8 yesterday and i'm trying to prepare myself to have as little problems as I can when it get here.

I plan to use mine for recording guitar, bass, vocals and then using my pc for drums. Anyone run a lineout of their sound card into the MR-8 to do a drum track?

Thanks

I'm not sure if you can use Win98 at all in conjuction with the mr8...

Somewhere I read only 98SE can be used, but I don't know if this has taken into account the CF card reader or not...

The only reason it dont work with 98 is because win98 dont come with usb mass storage support. But there might be a driver or a fix for it somewhere. Anyone find one?

I am using a card reader with Win98SE and have had no problems at all. I downloaded Wave Manager but I never use it. I can copy files directly from my CF card using Windows Explorer. I recently set up my computer to run Dual OS Systems but I don't have much of my music software on the drive running Windows XP so I haven't tried using the USB port directly.
