[AT] how-to USB

[Larry D. Goss]

Right, H.L.  In those days, the rest of the peripherals were still
connected to the buss without the use of the USB controller.  I guess I
wouldn't define a five year old computer as being "modern".

I have a couple of desktop computers that are both completely USB 2.0,
but my laptop (which is only two years old) has a USB 1.0 root
controller that is hardwired to the motherboard and all the peripherals
go through it.  It isn't uncommon for me to have to bypass four or five
of those warning messages when I get everything hooked up to it.

My Dell system is over five years old and was originally equipped with a
1.0
USB card. A couple of years ago or so I pulled that cart and installed a
2.0
card it has more connection points than the original.  Now the system
doesn
t hollar at me because I have connected a 2.0 device to a 1.0 port.



Several people well versed in computer lingo hang out on Farmer's Cheap
computer list.
