No, the newer generation drives, mostly 1GB and up, explicitly do not
have drivers for 98SE at all.  In theory, one could tweak a
pre-existing driver to handle the extra memory, but in fact, a
Kingston 1GB drive will not work with 98SE.  That's the beauty of
Windows....

 In Win2k, Micro$oft finally got up to speed and most flash drives
will work with it, but XP is better.
