if this place is 'going to the dogs' because someone disagrees with you, Terry, then I expect you to get on all fours and play with them! I have been a member of the CCC since its subscription newsprint days. And I seem to recall that the first time I asked persons here for help in an unofficial capacity regarding a chessbase problem, someone strongly resembling you, who did not know the answer, acused me of being a 'pirate' and told me to go to hell. So I do not think conditions have gotten any worse. I only wish the beer in Canada was even stronger because a few more drunken canadian typists might quiet this board down a bit. cheers, marc On September 17, 2003 at 12:50:00, Terry McCracken wrote: >On September 17, 2003 at 12:33:13, margolies,marc wrote: > >> >>respectfully Terry, >>'why not?' is neither a useful nor concrete answer. >>some times USB controller chips on motherboards do not behave like other USB >>controller chips. >>I can cite the case of using Microsoft Flight Simulator with the special >>'Force-FeedBack' USB controlled joystick ( which allows one to feel the air >>plane shake, resistance on turns, etc.) Microsoft's drivers do not respond well >>to the VIA usb controller and never have.
