Unfortunately not for me and today's attempt has been one of several.

After plugging in the device, I get "USB device not recognized". It is
recognized under 98SE and on other machines with XP SP1 installed.

It happens the motherboard on the deviant machine has USB 1.1 support. The
alledged "malfunctioning device" will work fine on the USB 1.1 ports
although not at full speed.

I wonder if all the people who are having problems after installing SP1 on
XP also have both motherboard and PCI card USB.
