   It does work, in this case, but I think that Intel has created some    
   sort of hardware support that converts 1.0, or 1.1, into something    
   that the EHCI controller can understand. Obviously, there is no    
   special support in the driver, so it must be in the hardware. The    
   controller is described by PCI.EXE as being "Device 3B3Ch 5    
   Series/3400 Series Chipset USB2 Enhanced Host Controller". The second    
   one is described as "Device 3B34h 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset USB2    
   Enhanced Host Controller".    
      
   Windows 7 also shows only the two EHCI controllers, so it must be true   
   :-)   
      
   I posted this because it does seem that new devices may not have, or    
   need, UHCI, or OHCI, to be able to use USB 1.x devices (surprised me    
   too).
