P4S8X-MX = SIS661GX/SIS964.

OK, so I look in my WinXP SP3 install, at the usbport.inf file, and I find...

; =================== SIS ======================================
[SIS.Section]
%PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_7001&CC_0C0310.DeviceDesc%=OHCI_HYDRA.Dev,PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_7001&CC_0C0310
%PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_7002.DeviceDesc%=EHCI.Dev,PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_7002

So at least WinXP SP3 knows about it. I don't have any other usbport.inf files
to look at, to tell you what support was like in earlier Service Packs.

USB2 drivers are supposed to be included in WinXP SP1 or later.

This file is pre-historic, and was released before SP1. It was released,
before Microsoft made the chip makers remove their files. You should not
really use this. I'm only pointing this out, to show that at one time,
a file was made available for customers. But it would be foolish at
this point in time, to use this file. In 2010, this file is inappropriate,
and is only going to make more of a mess than anything else.
