    Exclamation USB in DOS

    I know you going to say Impossible, but I need more info. about operate USB in DOS.
    (look for exmple : Norton Ghost, or Some Mouse Driver) Is there any address like COM (3F8, 2F8) or LPT (387, 3BC). Any good link will be great.

    Thans, Dan.

    the link does not work,
    and the answer is "impossible"... usb is a windows thing. DOS doesn't care about usb and never will care...
    sorry.

    This is the correct link that Danimal was trying to post ---> http://www.usbman.com/Drivers%20and%20Patches.htm

    If this is true then how comes Nortons Ghost 2001/2002 can use USB devices in DOS & installs drivers for them ???

    You are right for some extent - there is no Universal driver for USB under DOS.
    Much like the USB Driver for Windows NT4, This is a propriety driver.
