Win 95b is usb compatiable
,I would think the 98 drivers would work in 95.
If you don't have usb install yet on 95 it has to be install , on the win95b disk you will find a folder called OTHERS ,in there is a folder called USB,in there is a install for the usb.

This is not entirely true. Only Windows 95 C has full USB support (and some special versions of Windows 95 B).

Windows 98 drivers won't run on Windows 95.

Most USB drives support Windows 98 and up thisexcludes Windows 95!

I've seen spme Windows 98 drivers work on Windows 95. You could try your luck with the Windows 98 drivers.
