Hello,

I am Herbie and having very big problem and dont know how to solve it i hope there will be someone who can :)

When i plug in memmory stick everything is allright i can use it no problem. But some of them for example my i-pod and Hard Drive cant be recognized when i plug the usb cableinto my pc absolutely nothing happens. anywhere in the system i cant find them it seems like i didnt even put the cable in. but everything is ok with that because i tried it on another pc and it works perfectly. my usb slots works perfcetle aswell because i using my internet through usb slot. i tried lots of things but nothing helps. im using Windows XP Service Pack 2. i think meybe some kind of security or something there is or anything like that. Please help me someone.
