    Hacking MicroSD USB 2.0 xp requests driver!?

    Did you read the whole thread? It's explained why I will get one and it's explained why I can not right now, it's also explained why this advice is not of much use to me right now. I've built this pc, I build websites, I do graphics, I game and I write the odd snippet of code... I'm sure I can...

    Hacking MicroSD USB 2.0 xp requests driver!?

    thanks woof, must be quirky timing, I just verified the microSD card itself is working properly so must be the stick, or maybe there is an obscure driver somewhere that might help, im not betting on it. ill see if the camera allows me to use it as the medium

    Hacking MicroSD USB 2.0 xp requests driver!?

    It's just in my usual experience with broken usb hardware you get the driver request, you install the driver, and instead of joy it's still not working... I'm missing this verification here and that's why I have a hard time giving up. the fact that there's no where to get a different usb reader...

    sure and it would run a game and crash after 5 minutes saying bsod nv4_disp.dll infinite loop or something and you'd know it's broken.

    arctic flame, yet it reports it as a USB Reader and asks for a driver it reported my phone as a sony phone and requested a driver. difference, with the phone I had a driver. I posted the device ID earlier btw.

    Hacking MicroSD USB 2.0 xp requests driver!?

    if there would be something wrong with the hardware, why would xpdetect it and ask, quite normally for a driver? PS I've edited and added my complete system on my last reply on the previous page and a list of verified working usb devices using the same port I'm trying the stick on. I don't...

    Hacking MicroSD USB 2.0 xp requests driver!?

    you know what I mean 1.0 is almost not worth mentioning and many initial 1.0 host controllers could be upgraded to 1.1 with firmware as it's for the most part a software change if I'm not mistaken. Add to that 1.1 has been in effect since '98 and 2.0 is backwards compatible with 1.1 that's...

    Hacking MicroSD USB 2.0 xp requests driver!?

    EDIT removed /EDIT I'll check back tomorrow or later, off to continue searching for a driver. @user200 Thanks for reminding me, I've tried the backports as my case is a bit old (although 2.0 uses the same hardware as 1.1 as far as cable and ports go). Didn't change anything it detected the...

    Hacking MicroSD USB 2.0 xp requests driver!?

    thanks but as I already mentioned I'm running SP2, I even slipstreamed my xp cd with sp2 ages ago. besides that if any port or device or driver does not support 2.0 it will simply run slower on 1.1 as that is how the usb standard works for backwards compatibility. also usb 1.1 or 2.0 does not...
