Well, I went out and bought a $30 USB 2.0 PCI card from staples and that fixed up my usb problems. The onboard ones obviously still don't work but I just went into the device manager and disabled the usb host controllers. Maybe someday SiS will come out with a patch to fix them. I do have to say tho....that it is really really weird how they worked for a while...i installed xp about a month after it came out...and then just now stopped working. Oh well I guess. But there ya go. Hope this helps you guys out. Take care and good luck ;-)

The problem is with the SiS 7001 PCI to USB yada yada.... I have been having similar problems and did a lot of looking around online. It seems that the controller is not compatible with windows xp (which explains why it WILL work with other operating systems). Something you can check/try (didn't work for me). In your BIOS there is a setting for DOS USB support. Make sure that is disabled. Otherwise..the only other suggestion i have found is to buy yourself a USB PCI card. I'll probably end up getting myself one of those soon too. ( I kinda miss my USB stuff...:-p) Hope this helped ya out.

well..that info was a little bit over my head...but here is what i did find out. In my device manager under USB controllers I have listed SiS 7001 PCI to USB Open Host Controllers listed. After looking around online a while i found a LOT of complaints about that controller and its compatibility with windows xp. All of them basically ended with the suggestion of going out and getting a USB PCI card. (Since my last post more of my USB devices have stopped working and are not being detected) I don't really understand how they can be working fine and then slowly stop working ...but...whatever I guess. I suppose I'll go out and get a PCI card and see what happens....I'll let u know if that works for me.

Hi, I'm having the exact same problem. I have a quickcam pro. All my other USB devices work fine. I plugged the cam into a friends computer and it detected it right away as the cam. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx
