Windows XP Boot Up Hang, USB Router

Posted August 16, 200717 yr

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...

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.
