LoneCrusader Posted August 27, 2015 Author Posted August 27, 2015 You're welcome. I'm glad it's working for you and you're getting some enjoyment out of it. Good luck!
cov3rt Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 i am using the hp pavillion xt115 laptop ( rs200m chipset ) on windows 95 and i am having problems with getting the usb controller to work. after installing xusbsupp, upon reboot, when it tried to install the driver for the controller, labeled ali pci to usb open host controller, it would just freeze the system, could not move mouse cursor, and i had no choice to go into safe mode and uninstall xusbsupp and was able to reboot normally. i was wondering what could be the issues, i tried testing with the usb legacy option in bios enabled and disabled and it made no difference. i was thinking there may be some conflict with the "via pci bus management fix" update that i use, i believe it is only for windows 95 up to osr 2.5 and windows 98 first edition only, the readme just says windows 95 and 98. but yeh, i installed this update before i proceeded with xusbsupp.
LoneCrusader Posted June 16, 2018 Author Posted June 16, 2018 Why are you using a VIA update on a computer that doesn't have a VIA chipset? In any case please provide a link to this update and I will see what, if anything it changes that could affect USB. I have encountered at least one situation where an Intel USB1 controller on an MSI motherboard would cause Windows 95 to hang but did not affect Windows 98SE. The same VID&PID controller on a different motherboard did not have this issue, so it's possible the problem is purely hardware related. The few ATI/AMD chipsets I have encountered have not been 9x-friendly at all.
cov3rt Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 (edited) im gonna see if i can upload the via update in two parts via pci bus fix part 1.zip Edited June 16, 2018 by cov3rt
cov3rt Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 (edited) via pci bus fix part 2.zip you were asking why i would install the via update on a motherboard that does not have a via chipset, that's a good question but that's why i'm here to know whether or not what i am doing is right, i put it in my checklist because i thought that because it mentioned usb controllers and i had experience with having a via 3108 usb controller in the past with rs200m chipset, i thought it was needed on this build, however, in this particular laptop, it seems that it WAS different and used the ali usb controller and not the via usb controller, hence, making that update i installed either useless or possibly damaging. i only realized just now the usb controller was ali and not via. ali being the older variant of nvidia i believe. oh and the hardware id of the ali usb controller is "PCI\VEN_10B9&DEV_5237" Edited June 16, 2018 by cov3rt
LoneCrusader Posted June 16, 2018 Author Posted June 16, 2018 Apparently the installer must be run in order to unpack the update. I'll investigate further on that later. But to answer your second question no, this update should not be used on your current machine. In general it's best not mix up other manufacturer's packages whenever you're setting up a system not using their components. Always start with installing the bare minimum of packages specific to your machine, then proceed to other solutions if and only if you have problems.

peido Posted November 15, 2022 Posted November 15, 2022 Hi. Just wanted to give my feedback. I recently restored an old Compaq Armada 1700 I bought to a colleague with Windows 95 in Portuguese. I was kind of afraid of using xusbsupp on a version of w95 not in English, but it worked great Thank you.
shelby Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 It works flawlessly under my greek edition. Thank you very much
ljcool2006 Posted April 27, 2024 Posted April 27, 2024 I'm getting this after installing XUSBSUPP on my Windows 95 OSR2.5 VM: Windows Protection Error. You need to restart your computer. I tried installing the FIX95CPU patch to no avail.
