1. Introduction
---------------
The contents on this CD will allow OEMs and System Builders to incorporate USB 2.0 support for EHCI Host Controllers with CompatID, on the Microsoft(r) Windows(r) 2000 operating system (with Service Pack 2, any language). This ID will also be present in Windows 2000 Service Pack 4.

Either this Supplement or the previous USB2.0 Supplement (April 2002) may be used, but not both.


1.1 USB 2.0 EHCI Host Controllers Supported
-------------------------------------------
The drivers provided on this CD will install on any USB 2.0 controller that reports that its compliant with the EHCI specification (in its PCI namespace). EHCI compliance is the responsibility of the USB 2.0 controller; this driver has not been tested with devices that did not exist at the time of its release.

Microsoft’s plans regarding support of additional EHCI controllers can be found on http://www.microsoft.com/hwdev/bus/usb.  


1.2 USB 2.0 Hub support
-----------------------
USB 2.0 hubs are supported by this package.



----------------------
2. Contents of this CD
----------------------
This CD contains the USB 2.0 EHCI package with CompatID necessary to support USB EHCI controllers and USB 2.0 hubs.

The USB 2.0 EHCI package with CompatID consists of the following files:
	USBHUB20.SYS
	USBPORT.SYS
	USBEHCI.SYS
	HCCOIN.DLL
	USB2.INF
	USB2.CAT

The INF file is responsible for loading the USBEHCI.SYS host controller miniport, the port driver and a hub20 driver on a Windows 2000 system. The host controller coinstaller (HCCOIN.DLL) is also registered and is responsible for ensuring proper installation of the USB 2.0 driver stack.

Unlike the Windows XP release, a QFE package is not required for the Windows 2000 release as no Windows 2000 existing files are being replaced or updated.



--------------------------
3. Installation Directions 
--------------------------
Install the USB 2.0 EHCI package using Plug and Play INF installation procedures. 



------------------------------------------------
4. Installation Instructions for Network Install
