From: L.S. on 5 Nov 2009 10:51 Not sure if this is correct group. If not, please redirect. Winxp fully updated. Have three different thumb drives and all lock up system when I insert into front usb slots. All 3 work on my other system with no problem running xp. Have searched Google and find several references but not sure if this is a system problem or xp. The system completely locks up and I have to 'reset'. IF I turn system off insert drive and power up it works fine. The only thing I have plugged into each system(USB) is a wireless mouse. As stated above, I found several references but not sure if it's Winxp problem or not! Not sure what, if any, settings I can check/change. Thanks, L.

If you built the computer yourself, what is the make and model of motherboard ? Is the computer case made by Antec ? Have you been installing custom USB drivers or applying hot fix USB patches to your system ? Or are you using the USB drivers that accompany the OS installation ? Paul

It's a Biostar Mobo M7NCG 400 with a AMD Sep. 2800+. Have 2 USB ports on back card and 2x on front of case. Not sure of case name? *************** > > Have you been installing custom USB drivers or applying hot fix > USB patches to your system ?

I have not uninstalled printer. No hot fix patches that I know of. Except for the printer I just let winXP run it. The only updates I do is from MS. ************* > Paul

Not to drive you nuts but trying to give info. Update2 I unplugged my wieless mouse from back and plugged it in front USB port and it worked ok. As soon as I plugged in flash drive(front) it locked up.
