connection increasing the maximum data transfer rate to 12 Mb/sec.

enabled motherboard, USB connections, and a version of WINDOWS 95 (called
Win95B or OSR2). Most computers manufactured prior to January 1997 do not
meet these requirements, but most computers manufactured since then often meet
these requirements.
