USB ports don't work w/XP SP1
I installed SP1 last night, and all my USB devices
stopped working. Device manager showed no problems with the ports and hubs. I uninstalled SP1 and everything is back to normal. Leaving it uninstalled would seem like a perfect solution, except that I need to use Office 2003, which requires SP1. The computer is a Sony Vaio, and a very recent one, so it seems like they ought to be compatible. I did try restarts and swearing before the uninstall, but no luck. Suggestions? Thanks! Meriah... |

USB ports don't work w/XP SP1
I have the same problem. After SP1 was applied, my Adaptec USB2Connect
4000 stopped recognizing USB 2.0 devices. I run Win98 on the same machine and the devices continue to run. I have the latest drivers from Adaptec installed plus all the hot fixes I can find from Microsoft including the fix described in Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 822603 .

Try eBay
"Pearlgarden" wrote in message ... | No suggestions on that, but I have Xp and a perfectly good Lexmark Printer. Lexmark tells me the one I have is not compatible with XP ,op.... I have mailed them thinking since I purchased their product that they would either let me send this one back to them, or let me do some kinda of trade in. But all they said is that, " THanks for the input and feedback it is people and questions like yours that better us to serve our customers. No offers, discounts, trade-ins or anything. I find this very unpleasing. If anyone at all can tell me how to get around this please inform me , because they dont seem to care enough to work with me . Thanks | |

The "cure" that seems to work for me is to use the device
manager to remove the USB port and hubs and to unplug the USB devices and reboot. This will force the OS to redetect and install the port and hubs with the latest drivers. Then install the USB devices one at a time so they get properly identified. "road rascal" wrote in message ... | I have the same problem.
