Solve : USB 2.0 DEVICE?

Answer»

MY 2.0 USB DEVICE ISN'T DETECTING, THE OS IS 98 ON A AIMB-742 MOTHERBOARD. I'VE LOADED ALL THE DRIVERS FOR THE MOTHERBOARD AND 2.0 USB DEVICE. IT DETECTS MY 1.0 USB DEVICE BUT NOT MY 2.0. ANY HELP OR SUGGESTION WOULD BE VERY APPRECIATED.As far as I'm aware, Win 98 doesn't have native support for USB 2, although 98 SE may have. However, USB 2 is backwards-compatible with USB 1 so your devices should work although much slower.

You might find some info here if you get stuck;
Link EditThanks for the info. Its a 98SE. I've use this motherboard before without any ISSUES. Could the MB have bad usb pins? I will check the linked attached.Quote from: Gil on February 08, 2008, 12:41:09 PM

What device isn't detecting ? ?
Where are the USB plugs on the machine ?
No matter what device it is if they don't have Win98 Drivers for it it will not correctly see USB 2.0 or even USB 1 for that matter...
Post some more specifics on the devices you're having issues with.1. Enable the APPROPRIATE USB support in your BIOS. Read subsections 3.6.4 thru 3.6.7 of your motherboard's User's Manual.

I'm guessing you need both the "USB Controller" and "USB 2.0 Controller" settings enabled. USBMan recommends enabling "USB Keyboard Support" whether or not you're using USB keyboard with Windows 98 SE.

I'm puzzled by the following sentence in the USB 2.0 Controller subsection of the User's Manual. "The BIOS itself may/may not have high speed USB support".

2. So you loaded the USB 2.0 Driver for AIMB-series ?
