subject: USB Support w/Win95b

-> My mother bought my father, for Father's Day, what appears to be a very
-> nice digital camera.  She didn't ask me about it first, but after buying
-> it, asked what I thought.  First thing I noticed about it was that it
-> requires a USB port.  His machine does not have one, but I have a spare
-> card that I can put in it to add 2 ports.  However, the card requires
-> Windows 98SE or better because that was when USB support was introduced.
-> The camera also requires SE, but I believe that is due to the USB
-> connection requirement.

-> His machine meets all the other requirements.  Is there any way (third
-> party, maybe) to get USB drivers & support for Win95b, or will he need
-> to upgrade?

 Without an Upgrade to at least Win98SE he is out of luck. Win95b had
very poor support for USB and the first edition  of Win98 was little
better. But Win 98Second Edition works great. I have used it with both
the on MB USB-1 ports and with a PCI USB-2 card.
