Crap. I have the same problem with my USB ports again. Whether I plug a
USB memory stick into the motherboard ports or the add in USB 2.0 PCI card,
WinXP Home will show a dialog box that its recognized the device, give a
beep, and then the system reboots. Several calls to Microsoft seemed to
indicate that the driver for my camera was causing the problem. After
removing the driver, I still have the same problem. I didn't have this
before I rebuilt the system using the same XP Home disk. Any ideas?
Doesn't seem to matter which manufacturer of memory stick I try or whether
its USB 1.0 or USB 2.0. Please help!!!
