USB on WIN NT 4.0

robfisher
So, Microsoft says they don't support USB on Windows NT 4. 0. My question is, can it be done? What I want to do is, use a Linksys USB network adapter on a machine running Windows NT 4. 0. Are there any universial USB drivers out there for Windows NT 4.

Thin Client Gaming Box

jmmijo
OK, so I work for a local POS company and at one time we used boxes with XP Embedded for the client side OS. Well these are actually nice little boxes, they are based on the C3 cpu and of course that means the VIA chipset too with the crappy onboard graphics.

Question Regarding RAM

Johnny_Burn
I have a computer that is used for gaming and work. Dell XPS 400. It initially came with 2x512mb sticks or RAM installed. I went out and bought 2x1gb RAM. Installed them. Everything seems fine. The computer recognizes them along with the 512 sticks.
