MP3 Player..

I have a partitioned drive. One drive has ME and the
other one has XP. Now I tried to connect my mp3 player
through the USB port and switched the system on. Somehow
the system gets stuck on the Intel Pentium 4 screen and
doesn't proceed further. I tried rebooting a couple of
times. Finally, I removed the USB connection and it
worked fine. I also tried connecting the MP3 player while
XP was running and the software doesn't recognize the
presence of an mp3 player. Previously I had only ME in my
system and the whole thing was pretty normal. I'd really
appreciate it if someone knows how to fix this problem.
 
Hi, reverbrater.

What kind of USB port do you have? Is it built into your motherboard, or on
a PCI card? If it is on the mainboard, it probably needs to be activated in
the BIOS, but you apparently did that because it worked under WinME. Do
other USB devices work in WinME? In WinXP?

If your USB connection is on an add-in card, have you installed WinXP
drivers for USB itself? WinXP deals with hardware MUCH differently from
WinME, and drivers for one system almost certainly won't work with the
other. That's true for the MP3 player, too, of course.

Visits to the tech support pages of the websites for the manufacturers of
the USB card (if applicable) and the player might turn up proper drivers -
and good advice.
