Re: USB 2 PCI board problems



Which PCI slot did you install the card into ? Numbering
schemes vary but usually PCI Slot #1 is designated as the
one adjacent to the AGP slot. XP can handle IRQ sharing
and your motherboard probably has an APIC controller
that raises IRQ mapping to #23. I'm a little out of touch
with the newer boards, but on previous MBs Slots #2 &
#5 have independent IRQ mappings.
Are you continuing to use the motherboard based USB
channels or just using your new USB2.0 ? You may want
to disable the motherboard USB channels (Via BIOS).
