usb issue

[chevyvanman]

I've just gotten done building a P4 system, Biostar MB, PA 2.47 Ghz processos, 512 ddr, 2 ide HDs all new. The system running with win xp boots and runs great but, when I put any device in any of the 6 usb hubs it eaither reboots the sys or gives me a unknown device issue. Any Ideas? :mad:
thank you

Did you make sure that you have the latest Mainboard/Chipset drivers installed?
Also check for new BIOS updates for your Mainboard, they might have fixed something.
Last but not least, run Windows Update to get all the recent patches.

I also had some trouble to get USB working on my new machine:
After (un)installing the USB drivers manually several times I got it working for some reason...

I personally wouldn't install any BIOS update, except it really fixes an important problem for me.
Nevertheless you should look for available BIOS updates and check the changelog...

Did you install the motherboard chipset drivers?

What chipset is the board? If you don't know, what exact model Biostar motherboard is it?
