Title: Windows 3.1 and the USB port
Post by: TheFinalShowdownIr on September 17, 2007, 10:13:57 AM

I have a Toshiba Satelite laptop installed with Dos 5 and Windows 3.1. It was made to have NT and 98se (or just 98). Is it possible to download a program that will permit me to use the usb port, and the pcmcia slots, or will the latter work in 3.1 automatically?
