Hi guys,

I just did a re-install of XP on my computer. Everytime I install XP
it hangs when it says 'Setup is loading Windows'. I did some research
and decided to force the HAL into MSI multiprocessor. My motherboard
is a Gigatbyte GA-6BXD, dual processor. Before I had re-installed, I
was running XP and the USB ports were working fine. Now when I try to
use the onboard USB ports, nothing happens. I checked in the Device
Manager and it had an exclamation mark next to ' Intel(r) 82371AD/EB
PCI to USB Universal Host Controller'.

I did some reseach on this and most people said to update the BIOS. I
checked all over for it on the web but i can't find it, since the
Gigabyte website is 'down'.

Can anyone help me?

Did you install the drivers for your board? Most boards come with drivers
to install. I had no problems connecting to the gigabyte website:

So you had XP successfully set up on it before?

Did you have to do this before, when you had XP working properly? If not,
what has changed since the last time? Have you disconnected any
non-essential peripherals? Do you actually have a pair of processors
installed, and if so, which type?

Doesn't sound like there's anything electrically wrong with them then.

As Patty has already suggested, have you installed the Intel Chipset
Drivers? Also, if you have reinstalled XP, have you done it from an original
release CD, or the updated one that has service pack 2 already preinstalled?
If the former, make sure you also install SP2.

If you had XP installed and running properly before, it follows that there
is nothing significantly wrong with the current BIOS. As such, don't bother
changing this until you have tracked down the problem.
