HI,

Welcome to the world of Plug and Pray.  You may be experiencing a simple
conflict due to the USB 2.0 chipset.

Did you install the Drivers for the USB card first, before installing
the card?
That seems to be the better way of installation for XP in my experience.

Did you try installing the card in different PCI slots?

Are you going to still use the USB 1.1 ?  Can you shut it off and get
the installation finished?

If none of the above work then I would just change the USB 2.0 card for
one with a different chipset before I tried a new motherboard, which
presents a whole lot of other issues with XP.

Thanks and have a Great Day!

Ok Folks, I'm starting to feel completely incompetant. I have built many
computers over the last several years. I cannot get a simple USB 2.0 PCI
card installed in my own computer. I have downloaded, disabled,
uninstalled, reinstalled and nothing seems to work. I need step by step
help with a solution. I have XP Pro, Abit KX7-333r motherboard (raid
disabled, not used), 1034 mb DDR 333 ram, Leadtek Nividia Ti 4400 128mb
video card. On board USB 1.1 with 4  extra USB ports running off of
motherboard. Just want to install USB 2.0 and not able to do it. Plug
and play recognizes the new card, starts to install NEC to USB Host
drivers, then scree says 'cannot install this hardware, problem
installing USB controller, an error occurred duing the installation, the
data is invalid, click finish to close. This happens with the
installation disc or using the windows drivers with SP-1 update. Getting
ready to back up hard drive and get motherboard with 2.0 onboard if
solution not found shortly...
HELP Please!!!!         Kenny Parks
