Hi,
I have Windows XP SP2 on a Sony Vaio laptop.
When inserting a USB cable into any of the three USB ports, both for a
digital camera and for an external hard drive, after the beeping that
signals the occupation of the port, the devices are not recognized:
-the software of the camera is not triggered, nothing happens
-the external hard drive icon does not appear in My Computer and the
driver is not usable.
The digital camera used to work in the past, I suspect before the
installation of SP2, whilst I only tried the external drive after the
installation of SP2.
I thought the USB ports drivers may need reinstalling, but I could not
find the related software on the microsoft website.
Many thanks to whoever wishes to help.
