Anyone ever had this mobo problem?

USB Flash drives dont. No, the usb PORTS work (router is plugged in) just all usb flash drives are not recognized. Some error about there not being a device driver for it...

Sounds more like a driver issue than a mainboard issue. You need to provide the exact error for anybody to be able to assist, unless somebody actually has already experienced it.

It just shows an x on the usb thing in device manager. (it xs out Muvo2 FM which is my mp3 player...so i guess it recognizes it but it cant use it?)

Your pictures just come up as tiny, unreadable images. I don't think they'll really help that much anyway, at least for me. It's possible your USB ports aren't putting out the right power but that's unlikely. You'd have to test some other power-using device on them to be sure.

You could try cleaning out the drivers so that Windows reloads everything. You can try something like the DriverCleaner application. Or just unplug all USB devices, then go into Device Manager and remove all the references to the USB root ports and hubs and anything else and reboot, let it detect all the hardware, then try connecting it again.

You may want to update your chipset drivers before doing that as well.

windows xp has usb drive support because it has generic drivers it uses when it detects a "removable" drive. If you already installed the Chipset drivers as in the post above USB drivers are usually seperate. But think its more of a problem with windows native drivers for usb drives.

I would try doing to repair install using an install disk. or maybe a "sfc /scannow"

usb drivers are separate for a Win98 install of mb drivers, not XP.

 

[agentsmith101]

tried sfc /scannow. I tried updating drivers and it says that usb device driver installation failed

Usually if a certain driver wont install its because they werent installed in the right order. Some mobos are picky about it. If the chipset drivers werent the first thing installed it would somewhat mess up the order as XP installs generic drivers automatically.

USB drivers are serperate for XP also. it has built in generic ones for major manufacturers but the mobo manufacturers USB drivers provide more compatability and support.
