USB Hub not recognising

Feb 24, 2004 6:12AM PST

Pentium 166
Win98SE
USB 2 Port PCI Controller Card (Dynalink).Both ports verifiably working, one MS Optical Trackball dedicated, one through infomation transfer.
Attached new Plug and Play USB 4 Port Hub (Belkin), slider setting to 'self' for use with power adapter.

Windows installed driver information. Checked Device Manager, red mark over device, "disabled (code22), click on 'Enable Device'" Did this, PC then reboots, Check Device Manger, yellow mark over device, "device either not present or not working properly, or does not have correct drivers installed (code10).

Place of purchase tells me no other drivers should be needed.

What am I missing here?

The trivial cause is 'device not working properly'.

Try it on a Windows XP machine. These has better usb support, and possibly no need even for a driver, just plug and play.

And did you look at the Belkin site for possible answers? Or maybe just a later version of this same Windows 98SE driver?

If this is a USB 2 hub, are you sure it's compatible with a USB1.1 port on the machine? Or might this be one of the mysterious issues with a USB 2 port under Windows 98?

All kinds of possibilities.

All about USB.

Almost all you need to know is over at http://www.usbman.com

The place of purchase is correct. They have no drivers for you.

My guess? I would solve it at USBMAN
