My w2k system recognizes a usb open host controller, gives it irq11 but still the controller does not work. The system manager reports no conflicts with the usb controller card.
Why?
System: bios: award v4.51pg, 350MHz, 64 GB
Thanks a lot!

Whether this is an on-board USB controller, or a plug-in card, you need to install the mfgs device drivers.
It is "preferable" to use the specific drivers fro the mother board, or card.
If you cannot identify who made the card, then see if Opti has a generic USB driver.
There are links at www.driverguide.com

At the opti website there aren't any drivers available. The FAQ says that no drivers are necessary - they are delivered with w2k.
It is a USB controller card.
Thx!

If the card is suppossed to work with the native W2K drivers, then do the folowing;
1 remove the card from device manager.
2. shut down the system, and physically remove the card.
3. re-boot, check for any conflicts.
4. shut down again.
5. Place the card back into the system.
6. Log an as administrator.
7. If needed, go to device manager, and re-install or update the driver for the USB card.
It is also possible that Windows is not installing the drivers for the card because they areallready installed for the on-board USB ports.
Try un-installing and then disableing the USB ports.
