Hi,
I'm hoping you can help with what is hopefully a basic problem! I have an old laptop which I have recently rebuilt with Windows XP, but none of the 3 USB ports seem to work. In Device Manager, it lists 4 USB controllers for 3 USB hubs, and the 4th controller shows an error. It won't let me install a driver for it either - I get a Code 10 error. If I disable it, the USB ports still don't work.
When I go into safe mode, USB devices do work, although I still can't sort out the device manager problem. I have found an unofficial bios update for a Compal CL50 but not sure how to update it, or if that would even fix the problem!
Any help would be gratefully received!
