| 426840 | 2006-02-03 19:06:00 | SP1, i think | ChunkyMunky (9717) | ||
| 426841 | 2006-02-03 19:11:00 | Then go into Device Manager and right click on the USB controller and Update driver. Sometimes thats all it needs. Let XP find the driver itself. |

| 426842 | 2006-02-03 19:33:00 | Or delete the USB controllers in device manager, and reboot. They'll get re-detected. | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 426843 | 2006-02-03 19:45:00 | have already tried updating the driver, says it has the best driver available will try deleting and rebooting on a slightly different point, do you recommend SP2? i have heard alot of bad stuff about it and am just wondering if i really need it, any suggestions? |

| 426844 | 2006-02-03 19:59:00 | SP2 is OK, just as long as u scan for / remove spyware etc before you update / install SP2. Or get the update, if u have a Prescott CPU SP2 will reboot continuously, if u have spyware etc on a system, or if you have a Prescott CPU. If deleting the USB controllers, doesn't work, make sure the BIOS option for USB 2 is on Hi-speed. If USB 2 is onboard. |

| 426845 | 2006-02-03 20:02:00 | Nothing wrong with SP2. You know the old saying, if you hear 10 bad things about something there are usually 20 good things about it. Trevor :) |

Me personally I do not, as in my experiences, SP2 has screwed up my graphics drivers on my old machine and needed a fresh instal to fix it, on the new machine it screwed up the net settings so often it wasn't funny, each time I got it running again it decided to destroy my connection, also needed a fresh instal to fix it :groan: and both of these happened more than on one instal each . :annoyed: Anyway these are just my personal experieces and I stay clear of it SP1 is good enough for me HTH :thumbs: |

| 426847 | 2006-02-03 20:35:00 | Have a look in your BIOS to see if they are turned on. Some BIOS default to having USB 2.0 turned off. | Big John (551) | ||
