USB Ports
 |
I have win98 and win2000 proffesional installed on two separate hard drives. The 2000 is installed from win98 on a separate hard disk and partition(NTFS).
the problem is that the USB ports dont work in win200. They work in win98. Any sugestions? Thank you in advance.

Does 2000 have USB drivers installed/loaded?

Old computers are getting to be a lost art. Here at Uncreative Labs, we still enjoy using the old computers. Sometimes we want to see how far a particular system can go, other times we use a stock system to remind ourselves of what we once had.

USB ports won't work?
Are you plugging in a USB storage drive? Like a thumb-drive?
If yes, WinXP and 2000 does not need you to install USB drivers.
It will auto-detect for you. But as for Win98, you would have to install them yourself.

Make sure you have installed the motherboard chipset drivers in your Windows 2000 installation.
