Hi Dan,

I don't have USB NT Hardware detect, but I'm not using USB boot so it
should not be necessary. I also believe that using USB NT Hardware
Detect makes USB flash drives show up as "Fixed" rather than
"Removable". This will cause a problem in my system.

Looks like I have not been able to describe my problem properly so I'll
try again.

I should add at this point that I have now changed to using FBReseal as
it was designed to be used and I still have the same problem. So my
problem is worse than I thought. I seem to remember that there were 2
or 3 "Support Incidents" included with the purchase of the XPe tools. I
used one several years ago. Can anyone confirm this, and would it still
be valid 5 years after purchase?

Here is what I do:

1/ build my image in the same way everyone else does. All dependencies
are satisfied.

2/ Copy this image from my dev machine to a hard drive in a sample of
my target devices and boot it. FBA runs. I do some manual configuration
of the image which includes several reboots. Part of this configuration
is to install some drivers that cannot be componentized.

3/ Run FBReseal and let the unit shut down.

4/ Copy the image from the first target device to another device built
from the same parts (motherboard, video, audio etc.)

5/ Boot this new device. After this device boots, USB keyboard does not
work for about 30 seconds but then works fine. I assume this delay is
PnP doing it's job.

6/ Reboot this machine. At this point no USB devices will work, no
matter how long I leave it (up to a couple of hours), or how many times
I reboot it.
