Hi ! This is my first post, and I have searched but do apologise for n00bieness !

I desperately need to activate USB 2.0 function in Windows 98 SE, motherboard : ASRock K7S41 (SiS 963 L southbridge). Neither MS, nor the MoBo or chip makers, nor the makers of my USB 2.0 capable appliances provide the needed low level drivers for EHCI.

As a result, my USB 2.0 external hard drive, and USB 2.0 disc on key, work only at painfully slow USB 1.1 speeds under W 98 SE (but do work at USB 2.0 speeds under windows 2000 SP 4 - tested)

Is the "Unofficial Service Pack" a solution to this problem ? Or does it not provide the EHCI chipset drivers, and if not, who will ?

Thanks in advance

Can it be update to the latest drivers

What do you mean by this? The file on Rapidshare is:
DriverVer=08/01/2002,2.00.0006.0

File in the post above is
DriverVer=3/1/2006,2.04.0002.0

This Orangeware driver is referenced here: http://www.orangeware.com/developers/faq_usb2.html
and this version can be downloaded by OEMs from http://www.orangeware.com/oemusb2.html

This driver: http://www.orangeware.com/oemusb2.html works with any USB 2.0 controller but is timebombed and available to OEMs only anyway.

Apparently there is no possibility how to obtain this driver. It is bad to know that there is driver that works with SiS motherboards, all new Intel chipsets etc. - but there is no way how to get it. Every $5 USB PCI card has license for USB driver - but motherboards not.

here are other versions of the USBView tool I found at these sites:

USBView.exe version 4.10.1721:
ftp://ftp.uni-linz.ac.at/Driver/Drucker/H...ccc/usbview.exe

also see Petr's latest post in this thread on getting version 5.1.2600.2180 of the Usbview tool:

Can the USB 2.0 files from WinXP work on Win98SE
with a lil tweaking and patching?

Better from Windows 2000 SP4 but nobody succeeded yet.
