@luckybob: your are right sir. I'm in for 3 cards to date, so it looks like I have 6 more to go. W95 I count myself lucky to have USB1.1 fully operational - a lite IE4 core install, USBsupp/USBupd/USBflash update did the trick...

well W98se.... 3 cards and various things have happened. - apparent complete installations; good DevMgr, but BSOD when actually using a plugged in external HD - no response to plugging in HD, no folder displayed in explorer. - complicated driver installation issues - not finding drivers, DevMgr …
