I have experienced a similar problem. I have verified the presence of the
versions of the usb drivers that SHOULD support usb 2.0, but since
reinstalling XP Home (both SP1 and SP2 included) the only things that work
are the printer and the broadband modem. Flash memory, still camera, etc, are
no longer recognized or generate the "mass storage device" that is not
operational, but when looking at them in device manager, they cannot have
their drivers updated because being usb devices, they don't require them.
All of these devices worked FINE before I reinstalled XP Home. My main board
apparently has a VIA chipset. How can I know if I have the correct drivers or
not for them? What happened to them during/after the reinstall? All I really
want to do is get this working again but I am curious as to what the heck
happened.
