DU-A2 USB PCI

Before you get too excited, check which version of Windows 95 you've got running (you'll have no worries with Windows 98). Unfortunately, the DU-A2 is only going to be of help to PCs with Windows 95 OSR2.1 or later. Also required is a spare PCI slot. Got both? Installing the card is as simple as pushing it into a vacant slot. Of course you'll have to take the PC's casing off, and you'll need to know what a PCI slot looks like.

I installed and tested the card without any hitches on a Pentium II 200MHz running Windows 98, and an older Intel 200MMX system with Windows 95 OSR2.1.

Turn on the PC and the beauty of USB takes over, no drivers required. Voila! Two new USB ports ready for some serious peripheral action.
