I recently installed a PCI I/O USB controller card (model CPVTUSB20-5) to add USB 2.0 support on an old PIII computer running XP sp2. The card was recognized without problems, and I installed the supplied driver. As far as I can see Windows recognized the card, but when I plug in any USB device (MP3-player, MP4 player and USB Flash drive) nothing happens. No lights on the devices, and no sign from Windows about the connection. I have no idea about what could be wrong, but the same thing happened when I installed a similar PCI-card (Firewire, model CPVT1394-4P) on an AMD Athlon xp2400 with a PCChips E848 motherboard, so maybe I´m doing something wrong.
This is some information on the PIII computer:
CPU Intel Pentium III, 500 MHz (5 x 100)
Motherboard Epox EP-61BXA-M/6ZXB/6ZXM/BX2/BX2P/BX3/BXC-A/BXT/ZXA
Chipset Intel 82440BX/ZX
System memory 128 MB (PC100 SDRAM)
BIOS Award Modular (07/16/99)
