Some O.S. (Operation Systems) like SCO Unix are unable to support “ Hot Plug ” 
function. If you apply “Hot Plug” to this kind of O.S., it will cause unpredictable 
behavior or shut down the PC. Before attempting to use “ Hot Plug ” , please make 
sure your O.S. and software driver supports the “Hot Plug” function.
