Thanks to hints from Andy GM3HUD and Rup DJ6HH I now have it working.

  My problem  started with  my not  knowing that  there was  a USB port on the
mother board.
I purchased a PCI USB board and plugged it into the one of the three slots.
I suspect without  knowing that there  was some sort  of clash between  the on
board USB and the plug in USB.

 My fix was to remove the plug in board, go to the default USB settings.
A quick dash to the Sunday  computer market to find a suitable connector which
I found the moment I walked in the door and back home again.

In the bios  Chipset Settings I  removed the USB  with USB Enable and disabled
it.
I then started  and shutdown again  and in Bios  Chipset Setting I  set USB to
enabled.

 On starting  it asked  for the  Win88SE CD,  loaded the  drivers and  after a
restart it worked.

 To sum up my problem was trying to have two USB systems in place.
I don't know if  it is possibe to  have the on board  USB and a plug in one as
well, maybe not. Someone may know the answer to that.
