Default Mobo swap

Damn, first time I've not been able to even find a trace searching.
AOHEdblhkystinks site is terrible and they push you off to MS KB articles.
Nary a crumb could be found on compatible/approved USB devices. Sure glad
I never had to deal with them!

My son says, bottom line, if the modem ain't listed in AOL (version 6.0)
program for connection, you can't use it for AOL. He says there is a
boatload listed though.
USB modem has it own driver etc in windows off of maker's CD says
daughter. (She says it has a CD with it, so am assuming this).
Don't want to trash her AOL (6.0).
We're going to clean install version 9.0 of AOL in XP on same PC for
grandkids use, and XP updates etc.
Dual boot system using system commander for boot manager. Grandkids are
locked out of Win98SE in system commander, only can use XP.

The motherboard swap went fine. 99 vintage Via to 2005 Intel. 99
vintage Amd to 2004 Intel cpu. Stripped drivers etc., installed new
mobo drivers in 98SE. Uneventful.

Want to swap com 1 connected 33K telco to USB connected 56K version
modem. PC is using AO-hell for internet/mail. Not familiar with AOL,
the change is for my daughter's PC. USB 2.0 is up and running.
