Sorry, I meant that I downloaded the nvidia drivers. I don't have drivers for the combo flash card reader. The manufacturer says there aren't drivers for the product that XP is supposed to just recognize the device. CD\DVD drive seems to work, but the flash card readers are recognized as un-known devices. Only once of my USB ports seem to work, so I am making the assumption that I need updated USB drivers for my motherboard, not drivers for the card readers. I have the new drive plugged into the USB port on the motherboard not an external port. How do I get this thing going? Also, how do I get my other USB ports to work?
