I'm having a problem with Windows XP I've been working on a couple of days,
this is the situation I'm in now...
My router has been working fine for months on Vista, but then it stopped
working and I decided to change to XP just for simplicity, now when the
drivers for my router (BT Voyager 2091) are installed on a fresh couple of
Windows XP using a USB connection from router to PC, my PC is prevented from
booting, it hangs just after the XP loading screen, just before login sceen
is meant to appear, sits there with a blank screen. Once the drivers are
installed and I plug the cable into ANY of the 6 USB ports, I cant start up
my computer, if I wait till the computer is started before plugging in the
USB cable to the router, the internet will not work anyway, and the computer
will hang when shutting down.
So in summary, with my USB router cable in, the computer cannot start or
shut down and the internet connection cant be detected, but with it taken out
the computer works fine, but of course the internet wont work in either of
these circumstances and this is what I need.
Curiously, I also had the same problem with Vista, I tried moving to XP and
that got me here with the same problem, but XP is the one I want to get
working for now.
P.S. I have my network drivers installed for my mobo and this router is
currently working fine for another computer connected to it by etherent at
the same time. I have also tried formatted my hd and reinstalled windows a
few times tryin different things to no avail.
