It's not UVCview.exe. That's a Quickcam tool. It should be called
USBview.exe. An old version of USBview can be found on the Windoze 98
CD under the tools directory. It might be on the ME disk, but I don't
have one handy to check.
UVCView, despite the deceptive name, appears to detect all USB
devices, regardless of type. USBview, which I have on my site, is a
much earlier utility.

I have seen two versions of it, one on the Win98 CD, another one on
the Web.
Here are the Properties of UVCView:
File Version:
6.0.5079.0 (vbl_media_core(percyt).050509-1227)
Description:
Microsoft® Windows(TM) USB device viewer
Copyright © Microsoft Corporation 1996-2005.
Internal Name:
UVCView
Original filename:
UVCView.EXE
I downloaded my copy from Microsoft's web site many years ago. In
subsequent years references to it remained on the MS site, but no
download. Now it appears that all references point to an updated
USBview, as you say.
There are bugs:

The latest bug fixed release is mixed in with the Server 2003 DDK
(driver development kludge) SP1. See:
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/ddk/default.mspx
All you have to do is download 230MBytes of driver development stuff,
in order to extract the lastest file. I'm tempted.
If you do, please let me have a copy. I'd like to extract the latest
vendor IDs.
