Does anyone know where to get USB drivers?

kk266 or kt266? i fthe latter, try via 4in1's - anyway probably will be chipset drivers on your mobo manufacturer's page for your mobo. I thought OS (since xp if not w2k, maybe winME) came with some sort of usb drivers anyway.

i vaguely remember http://www.usbman.com/ coming in useful when i had some probs with win98se - not a w98se specific site though.

KK266 FAQ

I ended up replacing the onboard USB with a PCI card because it just quit working one day.

Are you sure you need drivers for it? Do they just not work or what? Just asking because the USB ports are disabled in the bios by default. Why? I don't know.

Thats what I thought also, just enable them in the bios and they should work fine without any more work.

I still have an old KK266 running in my GF's comp and had the same problem (and solution). While a great board (in its day) the USB on it seems to be very flakey.

Great board? Ha! USB went out. Corruption on the RAID. Problems with network cards that worked fine in other systems. Zip drive never worked. IDE eventually flaked out.

Crap. Crap. Crap.

Do you know how to fix the network card problem? I am having that problem right now.

And yet I still have one running 24/7 continuously and (minus the minor issue of the USB ports, a problem common to other KT133A boards and easily fixed with a $10 PCI card) perfectly 2 years later? :disgust:

I switched to a Linksys card. That seemed to work for me.
