SUMMARY

Specific Via Universal Serial Bus (USB) controller chip sets are not supported in Windows 2000. The following model numbers are affected:

VT83C572
VT82C586

These chip sets are unsupported because of problems in the input/output (I/O) port aliasing that can only be resolved in the chips themselves.

For additional information, or to inquire about the availability of a software update that corrects this issue, please contact Via.

NOTE: Using an unsupported workaround for this issue could possibly cause system instability or data loss.
