SUMMARY
Specific Via Universal Serial Bus (USB) controller chip sets are not supported in Windows 2000. The following model numbers are affected:

MORE INFORMATION
These chip sets are unsupported because of problems in the input/output (I/O) port aliasing that can only be resolved in the chips themselves.
