Hello,

I've bought a PCI card to add 2 usb connectors in my PC. It's an Opti with the chip 82C861. I'm running under XP home.
The card has been recognized correctly by the system. There's no irq conflicts. Nonetheless, I can't get working any device I plug in. They remain unknown.

What can I do ?
Thanks.

Have you made sure that USB is enabled in the BIOS?

A friend had the same problem, but resolved it by adjusting the BIOS settings.

Hi
I've purchases 5 different PCI USB cards. NONE OF THEM WORKED. All of them were recognized by windows (xp pro). I installed drivers. NONE OF MY USB DEVICES WORKED.
I ended up buying USB HUB.

Well, that's not very encouraging ...

Yes, USB is enabled in the Bios.
