My point was you didn;t have to install it, it was already there! >Not quite so. Microsoft itself has said: >=== >Windows 95 OSR 2.1 and OSR 2.5 provide basic USB support that was >developed as the technology was first emerging. Based on today's more >mature USB technology, there are a number of limitations with USB >support in Windows 95 OSR 2.1 and Windows 95 OSR 2.5. > >These limitations were addressed in Microsoft Windows 98 and carried >forward to Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition. Addressing these >limitations required several architectural changes that are not portable >back to Windows 95 OSR 2.1 or Windows 95 OSR 2.5. >=== And you believe what microsoft says do you? >There were no "Win95SE"! :-) Retail 4.00.950, Retail SP1 4.00.950A, OSR1 >4.00.950A, OSR2 4.00.1111 (4.00.950B), OSR2.1 4.03.1212-1214 >(4.00.950B), OSR2.5 4.03.1214 (4.00.950C). And you don;t include the osr's as win95se much liek everybosy else? Hey that's what it would have been called if they'd realised they could flog it at retail too! anyway... >But look at the Subject: line - we're just speaking about 'what software >might work on particular Macintosh hardware'! :-) But even then we've streched a little!
