There's some windows 98 fixes that will fix this problem, make sure you've got all the USB updates from the Microsoft site. I use 98se witha MIDIman 2x2 USB and get super MIDI timing with it. rEalm I think the problem is that win98 (and possibly others) dont handle the USB ports in a timing sensitive way. I am under the impression that things are better with later versions of windows, sequencers, drivers and what-not but I am set up for the moment. Heck, it only took me 10 years to upgrade from my last system.
