I am also having this problem; my USB functionality is not working. Not in
my 1.1 with the Dell Dimension I have, nor with the 2.0 4-port PCI card I
have. I had to do a repair of the XP Home software and this is what caused
it. Then I tried to download SP1 and keep getting error messages about the
'cannot verify the integrity of the update.inf file' and am unable to
download SP1.
Dell had told me I would have to complete reinstall XP, starting from
formatting the hard drive - I would like to avoid this if possible. The
only thing not functioning are the USB ports; which I greatly need and miss!
USB Root Hub is NOT showing in my device manager at all; just the controller
files.
ANY SUGGESTIONS, ANYONE?????
Thanks
