trying to install a canon S200x USB printer.Displays "invalid access to memory location" error message and will not print. Advised by canon support that if the PCI to USB card works via the chipset (which it does:
VIA VT83C572/VT82C586 to USB)to contact PC manufacturer. This is not an option as the manufacturer is unknown. The PCI to USB card which connects the printer was bought from an independant trader and no software was supplied.please can any help me to remedy this?
Windows 98 OS.

Please supply your system configuration. Because if this is a usb printer it can be installed in win98 with the right driver. Do you have usb ports on your system?

1. Check to see if other USB devices are working on the Win98 be sure to have Win 98 second edition on it will help a lot.
2. Is the Cmos setting for the USB ON.
3. Of course be sure to have good driver for the printer and look for any patches available.
