I have an Abit NF7S mobo. I am having some weird problems connecting USB devices to my computer. I use an Antec Sonata case and use the front USB ports.

So when I connect digital cameras and my 32mb thumbdrive it works perfectly, but when I try connecting a 256mb jumpdrive i just bought, or my psp, it gives me an error that windows cant find the correct driver. This problem is making me crazy. I cant figure it out. At my computer at work i can connect all of these things with no errors at all. Anyone have any suggestions?

First, do you have SP2 installed ?? it has some updated usb drivers
Second, is your motherboard up to date with latest drivers & bios ?
Third, it is possible that what you are trying to use requires more power
than the port you are connecting to can supply .. Try it thru a Powered USB
Hub and see if that fixes it

yes i do have sp2 installed with all updates...my mobo has the latest drivers, and im not sure about the bios. as for the powered usb hub, i dont have one of those but i tried plugging them directly into the mobo at the back of the case and they still didnt work
