Which is why you are still happy with Win95...no version of Win95
works correctly with current USB devices...not even the might B
patched version.

Go to your local computer hardware store and read the USB hardware
boxes. Count how many list among the requirements Windows 98 or later.
My guess is it will be nearly all of them.

Heck, even the Microsoft USB mouse and USB keyboards state on the box
they require Windows 98 or later & you figure if anyone would be able
to make Win95 B work with their hardware, MS would.
