I've got a carton of early USB HID peripherals with non-detachable

modern (i.e. 2000-present) system even sees the things--that's an
indication of how far USB has come.
The Intel 82930 USB device controller (80251 microcontroller core)
itself shouldn't be the issue. Most likely a device firmware issue.
Any chance your carton of devices are Toshiba multimedia monitor
controls? Those were some of the earliest USB device available and I
believe they started shipping prior to the initial release of Windows
95 USB support. No real surprise that those aren't the most
compatible devices around.
