I recently upgrd to this board; however, USB 2.0 does not appear to be
working. I have attempted the following:
1. BIOS USB Controller Enabled.
2. Win XP SP2
3. Device is listed as Active is Device Mgr
When I attempt to plug in any of the USB ports it responds with message
USB Enhanced Controller Unavailable.

Running 3200+ Not OC
WD Raptor
Video ATI 3000 XT

TIA

I should have also include d the BIOS ver. The BIOS is reporting ver
1.3 031105? A little bizzare since the MSI site shows latest as 1.2

There is W7100NMS.113 (1.1 Beta 3), dated 02/02/05

But the one dated 03/11/05 is 1.2, according to techPowerUp!:
http://www.techpowerup.com/articles/other/111

I can't even find a link to 1.2 on MSIs site.

I've been using beta 5.04, but it's caused more problems than it's
worth. Machine is stable though.

But is "USB1.1 + 2.0" set?

Good.

Right. Well EHCI is the USB2 stuff. OHCI is USB1.

Odd... does the EHCI controller appear in device manager?

Ignore, me I'm using the Diamond.

I'll clarify, I have the 7100, are you talking about the 7125?

Why can't MSI have product names that distinguish products?

To All Who Replied;

Thanks. I discovered the problem. Although it was listed in DM I right
mouse clicked on the device and selected find appropriate driver. This
was a little bizzare I thought. If Win was showing it as enhanced it
should have selected the appropriate driver. I also discovered that
although I had bought Win XP and the package clearly stated w/ SP2 I
discovred I had to download from their web site SP2.
As far as the BIOS version I can only state MSI is mistaken on their
web site. The BIOS is clearly reporting 1.3 with the 3/11 date?
There is also a least 2 mistakes in the book with the board.

It states you are suppose to remove the CPU backing plate to remove the
plastic film and re-install. The film was had already been removed.

The alignment of the CPU with the arrow facing the Pivot point.

It has made my life with Photoshop a lot easier.

Q: I'm also considering this board or the Asus A8N-E SLI
Is your board running stable?
Would you buy it again?

Thanks
