Default USB upgrade from 1.0 to 1.1

I'm running windows 98 first edition I need to upgrade my
USB from 1.0 to 1.1 driver. The Philips software for the
Pronto NG requires at least USB 1.1 to function. I know
windows 98 second edition and up is required for a full
USB 1.1 compatibility. They say there is a upgrade for
windows 98 first edition that updates the "hidclass.sys
file. can anyone help me find the upgrade...

If your USB ports are direct motherboard ports you need to
see if the Mobo manufacturers have updated drivers/BIOS
for you to download. If it's a PCi USB card then the same
applies, but in either case there's no guarantee. Why not
install a USB2.0 PCi card (cheap) and get the best from
USB without going on a wild driver hunt?

OP's Win98FE does not support USB2, no matter how many updates or patches
are added. Requires Win98SE, minimum.
