Can't Upgrade to USB 2.0. Help Please!

I have an K7T266 Pro Version 1.0 motherboard. Have been trying for hours to upgrade the USB port to 2.0. Have followed all instructions from the MSI website.
Even upgrqaded my BIOS to 1.9 and still can't get it to work. When I try to install the USB 2.0 driver, I get a message that says "Driver Can't Start". I have up-to-date windows XP Professional Version with Service Pack 1. According to MSI, I should be able to upgrade but it just doesn't happen.
I remember being able to upgrade to USB 2.0 when the same system was under Win 98 Second Edition but just has not worked with Win XP. This is very important as I bought an external hard drive to use for making backups under Norton Ghost.
Can anyone please help me with this? I am sure some other users out there have had the same problem.
Thank You in advance...

I have the same problems with this. THE KT6-Delta cd that came with my motherboard does not have the USB 2.0 drivers. It directs you to microsoft's website to install service pack one for XP or Win 2000. Then you can download an update from Microsoft for the USB 2.0. Is there any way to get around installing SP1? I currently only have access to dial up and that would take forever. Can someone give a link to some place that would have the drivers for USB 2.0?

"Upgrade to USB 2.0" Help Please

I'm somewhat of a new mac user (almost fully converted) and I'm having trouble with my USB ports. I've learned that mine are 1.1 but my external drive requires 2.0. I read a few forum and learned that I could use a USB 2.0 notebook card. I ordered one and the card shows up in the bar at the top near the clock, but I still can't see my external drive. Am I doing something wrong? I should mention that the external drive I'm hoping to get to work with the Powerbook is one that is powered by the USB (no external power). To troubleshoot, I connected an old external with it's own power source and still got nothing through the new PC card...however, plugging it into one of the original USB ports worked fine.
That last part is what makes me think I'm not doing something correctly. Perhaps a mac setting that I'm not aware of. It is a Dynex DX-UC202 notebook card. I've read that people have it working with their macs so I'm not sure what to do.
Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
ps. Just thought I'd throw this out there for anyone still reading this. My ultimate goal is to have an external drive that I can share between a PC laptop and my Powerbook, one in which I can share an iTunes library. If anyone has better suggestions that what I'm trying to get to work, I'm all ears. Thanks again.

Hello bingston,
If the PowerBook that you are referring to is the 15" 1.5GHz Aluminum that you have listed, then it has 2 USB 2 ports, not USB 1.1
You should be able to power up your external drive directly from these USB ports.
The USB ports on Aluminum PowerBooks have a reduced power output, so you may need to use a double connection (most likely sent with the external hard drive enclosure if it is USB powered).
Hook it up to both USB ports directly and see if it doesn't startup your external and show it on your desktop.
I have an external USB hard drive that will startup with a single USB connection on the older Pismo & Titanium PowerBooks with 1.1, but needs a double connection to work on my Aluminum 1.25GHz with USB 2 ports because of this reduced power output.
By the way, all of the external enclosures that I have seen are actually backward compatible with USB 1.1 anyway.
As far as I know the connection with your PC Card should work automatically. Did it come with a driver installation disc? The reason that it is not working may be because your PowerBook lacks the proper drivers for it.

I agree- I apologize if I sounded skeptical and attacking. In no way did I mean it to sound that way.
I completely agree on the software-hardware combo issue- this is why apple killed off 1G and 2G devices- because newer software revisions would never ever run well if at all on such ancient devices. can you imagine running iOS 6 on an iPhone/iPod touch 1G? That would be terrible. Let alone iOS 3 runs terrible on them and now are generally rendered useless due to newer App Store requirements (most require 4.3+ now to allow apple to kill off the older devices). forcing newer software on older hardware (apple, dell, HP,... Anything electronic this definitely applies to) will almost always yield less-than-par results. The other part is apple forcing you to upgrade by means of intentially making things obsolete. all companies do that.
All of this factual info aside, the issue at hand with the 5 is not a software-hardware combo problem- those are most widely seen with the major revisions. then again, this isn't the first time apple has gotten caught up in battery drain snafus (even iOS 5 was plagued with this as well- and now there are some people desperate to roll back but can't). it basically waters it down to the point where keeping the stock software will always yield the best results even though newer versions provide better features- it all depends on whether or not the person deems the added features are worth a performance hit.
PS. I'm still at 100%- and I've been using it periodically throughout the day. your combo worked for you, but didn't for me. And may or may not work for others- As the tech world would say, mileage may vary.
PSS. What model/carrier do you have? Just wondering.

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour and QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

TS2771 my itouch 4th gen internal speaker doesn't want to work. what can i do to fix it? help please!

- Try inserting/removing a earphone plug a dozen or more times.
- Reset the iPod. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. Could be a bad headphone jack.

My iTunes isn't recognizing my new iPhone as a device. iPhoto recognizes it and uploads my pics. I've restarted the computer, updated itunes, tried a different USB port. Help please.

Does iphoto launch as soon as you connect your device?
If yes, did you try to disable the camera notification? iPhone and iPod touch: Disabling digital camera notification in Mac OS X

Problem Solved.....call ATT and they gave me the information I needed....account is a PPPoE. Use your ATT email address as the username, and then ATT provided the network password. Enter the information, update, restart. Now, internet access is achieved.

Can I upgrade my USB ports from 2.0 to 3.0 in my macbook pro(Late 2011)?

Im thinking about doing some upgrades and i wanted to know if it was possible to upgrade these usb ports

The only upgrades you can do are increasing the RAM and installing larger and/or faster HDD/SSD.
Ciao.

Itunes 10.4.1 64bit for Win 7 can't find quicktime, QTCF.dll error -- HELP PLEASE!

Let's try a standalone QuickTime.msi update. It may not install correctly either, but fingers crossed at least the error messages we get from that install may better indicate the nature of the trouble with the QuickTime install.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the QuickTime.msi to do a standalone QuickTime.msi install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes install properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Portlets can not be seen by Public Users: Help Please!

Hi,
I have seen another message that might be the same that is happening to me. I have created a content area, with folders and items. I have selected all available options to make them public , appart from publish them as portlets. I have added them to a page but when I enter the page as a Public User (without logging into Portal) the portlets can not be seen...There are others that can be seen ...Could you help me with this?
Many thanks
Mariela

I assume you're using the generic folder portlet to view the folders.
If you publish a folder as a portlet, are you able to see it?

Can't find my rented movie! HELP PLEASE

I recently rented a movie. When it was finished downloading I pressed play. Then iTunes froze so I had to close it. Now I cannot find the movie I rented anywhere, but I still payed for it. Help please.

Hello cheekythang
Check in your iTunes folder on your computer and look in the Movies folder to find the file. If it is there then drag the file on top of iTunes to start playing it. If you cannot find it, report the issue to the iTunes Store.
