Re: usb ports won't work after re-installing xp pro.

Have you also checked the BIOS settings related to USB ports? My ASUS
motherboard has quite a lot of things to turn on or off related to the USB
ports...

The tech probably did not install the chipset drivers for your

Go to your mobo manufacturers web site and download the latest set of
drivers.

I just built a new computer and had a bad video card. When my tech
removed the defective card she found that she had to re-install the
operating system. After the re-installation none of my usb ports will
work, not even the one in the back that goes directly to the
motherboard. I tried to reinstall the usb drivers from the
installation
disk, but it will not let me. It keeps telling me that they are
already
there and does not even give me an option to re-install. Does anyone
have any suggestions. HELP... Thanks... Ginger

I JS. Thanks for tryoing to help with a quick reply but I already tried
that. After I tried to get the drivers from the installation disk and it
didn't work, I went to the mobo web site and tried to download the
drivers but it told me the same thing and wouldn't let me go past that.
I even tried to look for any upgrades or patches but I got no where. I'm
still up in the air about all this. I keep hitting walls everywhere I
go. I even tried the Microsoft web site and I found lots of people in
the same boat but no solutions. I hate this. I built my computer
instead of purchasing a completed one so I could add on the extra usb
ports and get the thing exactly the way I need, and now the things that
I needed the most won't work.
