Does anyone anywhere know of anybody who successfully uses USB2 with DOS? For example, you can hook up an ordinary h/d with a USB2-IDE adapter, and then plug that into your USB2 slot and your h/d looks just like it was connected as a second (D drive (to your secondary IDE channel). You can do this in win98se, winme, win2000, and winxp. BUT, you cannot do it with DOS (not that I know about). So, if you want to use the fdisk and format programs from your win98se startup disk, you HAVE to have it connected to one of your IDE channels when you boot up from the floppy. It would be NICE if you could get DOS to have access to it via the USB2 connector and the USB2-IDE adapater. Am I dreaming? Yes? No? littleberry
