Title: USB Ports
Post by: RAMBO on December 11, 2008, 04:07:38 PM

Have an old computer we use. Running Windows XP, trying to put a wireless USB adapter in for the internet but it isn't picking it up. In fact, the all 4 USB pots don't pick anything up. Any suggestions to what  I can try to do to get them to work?

Can't find if they are enabled or not. Where else can I look for this besides the usual?

Try going to control panel,system,device manager. It should show the USB controlers in the device manager.
