My laptop has the subj. usb controller. It was built in Aug 99 and
was Sept 99 Laptop Mag Best Laptop Buy. I have very painfully been
trying to install win xp and I lost use of my usb port. Is there a
way to make XP recognize my controller?

Thanks

You most likely need a inf installer to tell XP about all your system
devices which means you need to go back to the manufacturer and hope they
plan on making some. You could try the 2K version but you might just screw
the whole thing up then.

I have in 2000 Pro, never installed. My sister had so many problems
with it on her business laptops she stopped installing it and gave me
one. I never installed it for the same reason. Hmmm....... Not
what should I do?

Your post is difficult to understand. Try rephrasing it.

OK Harry, and I have more to add. The usb port on the back of my
laptop is not working since I installed WinXP. When I go to Device
Manager it shows the exclamation mark. When I look further I find a
error message. "This device cannot find enough free resources that it
can use." Also it has in parentheses "Code 12".

So possible its a IRQ conflict, but I'm not smart enough to figure it
out. I have deleted the driver and let it find it again and its the
same.
Any help will be appreciated.
