Well, all I have is a beta BIOS for that board:
03/20/98-i430TX-2A59ISWCC-00
(2a59iswc) EVALUATION ROM
Note: this BIOS still has the 32GB HDD limitation, but is recent enough to be patched to support large HDDs (upto 128GB)

WTF? A VIA USB problem on an Intel board??? Are you using a PCI USB card? What about the onboard USB?

Now the system runs perfect!. I installed win 2000 and now there is a good usb support. think win 98se is not very stable in this matter

Win98Se runs fine with USB1.1 and USB2.0 if you are using drivers for the motherboard chipset or USB-chipset you are running
