=======================
3.0 Driver Limitations:
=======================
The following USB 2.0 devices and features are not supported

2. USB 2.0 Isochronous devices.
3. Composite USB 2.0 Devices.
4. USB Remote Wake Up.
=========================
3.1 Troubleshooting Info:
=========================
1. When using Windows ME, the Device Manager will have a green
question mark next to any USB 2.0 device which is connected
to an Adaptec USB 2.0 card. The device will continue to
function properly. This is an operating system feature.
2. When using Windows 98SE, if the system attempts to enter
in-active standby (S3 mode), the driver will only allow it to
enter standby (S1 mode).
3. When using Windows ME, the system may report that the
USB 2.0 CD-RW connected to an Adaptec AUA-2000LP card
does not contain any media when resuming from a suspend.
To workaround this issue; use the "unplug or eject hardware"
icon in the system to remove the USB 2.0 CD-RW. Unplug the
USB 2.0 CD-RW from the card, and then plug it back in.
4. When doing a hot-unplug/hot-plug, the system may not recognize
the USB 2.0 device. To workaround this issue, allow at
least 3 seconds between a hot-unplug and hot-plug.
5. When using Windows 2000, if two or more USB 2.0 devices are
disconnected using the "unplug or eject hardware" icon in the
system tray without physically removing the device, then when
one of the USB 2.0 devices is physically removed, the other
USB 2.0 device will re-enumerate. To workaround this issue,
hot-unplug each USB device you want to remove before using
the "unplug or eject hardware" icon to remove the next USB
device.
6. When using Windows 2000, with certain CD-RW applications
running, the system may stall if an USB CD-RW drive is
removed using the "unplug or eject hardware" icon in the
system tray.
7. When using Windows 98SE, Windows ME, and Windows 2000,
the system may not behave properly should it attempt to
enter active-standby (S3 mode).
