In messing around trying to work out why things were fine with MCP2 but
broken in eCS 1.1 & eCS 1.2 and trying to work out what is different, I
commented out the usbuhcd.sys entries in config.sys and voila - all
weird Mozilla problems went away.
Similarly, adding usbuhcd.sys to MCP2 made MCP2 behave in the same way
as eCS.
I've tried a few different versions on usbuhcd.sys and all do the same
thing - I can probably live with this as the only USB device I use on
the laptop is my card reader which is USB 2.0
Cheers,
Paul.
