USB 2.0 Problems

[eljaye925]

Hi,

I just put together my first system (intel 845 PE w/ XP)and having problems with the USB. I think I connected the front panel USB header pins correctly and I'm not seeing any obvious problems in the Device Manager. 2.0 is enabled in the bios as well as legacy USB.

I can't install the USB 2.0 drivers from the install CD that came with the mobo and I tried unsuccessfully to install a USB printer. I also tried disconnecting the front panel USB and then install the drivers, but that didn't work either.

Anybody have any ideas on what I should check or what might be wrong?

Short answer - fresh install with slipstreamed XP SP1 CD, don't install USB drivers from the CD.

More detailed answers at Asusboards.

Slipstreaming SP1 into bootable XP install CD instructions.

Disable legacy usb (mainly used for kybrd & mice) in bios . Get update drv from intel.
