Hi.

I'm trying to put an USB Stick in the PC and install some software + drivers from it but I can't seem to find where to access it.
I'm running ReactOS 0.3.13 in a hardware environment, AMD Athlon 2200+, 512 Mb RAM DDR 1, 40 Gb ATA HDD(Samsung)

ReactOS does not support USB yet.

1. hardware environment? You mean Virtual PC or real PC? real PC ==> bad idea.

2. USB-storage is not supported. ^^ But keyboards and I believe some mouses are working. I tried ROS once on a Pentium 4 PC but the mouse was not working...

Keyboard and Mouse only Run with enabled Legacy Mode.
And its New to me that real Hardware is a Bad idea. The opposite is the Case, we Need real Hardware Debug Logs badly.

Well... bad idea because ros may crash your data.

Real Hardware doesn't mean installing ReactOS side by side with Windows in your usual machine.
It means installing in an old-covered-of-dust PC with no valuable data in it.

I do try it on my usual PC, and I found recently that was not the best idea. Luckily, it was nothing Norton couldn't fix. It seems ROS and Windows don't quite access FAT32 volumes the same way. All I know was that I installed a small screen capture program under ROS, ran it, and then went back to Windows to share it. However, I couldn't get into the folder where the data was, and Windows called it a corrupted folder. So between using CHKDSK, NDD, and another tool, I was able to delete the corrupt folder and recover the files created under ROS (which were also trashed). It didn't harm any of the data I had before trying ROS under real hardware, but I understand now that it could have.

Well Windows even sees ":" in the foldernames as an not openable folder. To answer the initial question: No USB-Support isn't there. ^^
