A little tip for all of ya...

Often it is seen and i've read many times that the old drivers for USB devices dont work wid XP. I've had the same problmes wid quite a few of my own USB devices, where the drivers didnt work with XP. to solve this problem you dont have to update the drivers coz there'z a little trick. The trick is that instead of installin the drivers first, you plug in the USB device first. WHen XP says that it has found a new USB device, than it'll ask u for the drivers, simply point XP to where the old drivers are (i.e CD) and WOLLAH, it'll b installed. this works for almost any USB device.
I hope dis works and will save u a lot of time, effort and most of all your HAIR(lol).
