USB doesnt work for Grex sadly

I've got also a grex board, but the thing is that DCE didnt write any drivers for it. i dont exactly know how it was. maybe the responsible programmer didnt want to. but its not possible to use USB cards with a grex.
But you could buy clockport USB card, if you have an A1200. There are also Zorro USB cards for the Zorro Amigas!

best regards cego!

USB drivers exist for G-REX and was shown back in 2001 but the problem is that your PowerUP board needs a DMA update to get USB working. Sadly DCe never offered this update to public.

You cannot update the card yourself (you have to send it to DCE) and without this update you cannot use USB.
