S2DGU usb problem with XP

I don't know this board, but on other dual Supermicro boards similar errors
occur if you install WinXP with your computer as anything other than an
"ACPI Multiprocessor PC". If you don't have it installed as this, you can
run out of IRQs or some devices don't like sharing them and you get a
similar problem.

As an older board, XP may not detect the ACPI and you may have to force the
installation by pressing F5 (or was it F7?) as soon as your PC comes up with
the blue screen "Windows is detecting your configuration".

You can see if your installation is the correct type by expanding "computer"
in Device Manager".

You can also just add the MultiProcessor ACPI after the fact, just go
into device manager, and update the Uniprocessor ACPI...
