[[HOW TO] Install USB on XP with Skylake]

Follow this guide and put the missing files in c:\windows\system32\drivers then install usb drivers of ur external pcie card... Usb should work!!!

 

It worked!! You are a god!!

Here's the card that worked for me:

 

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FPIMICA/

 

It has 7 ports, 5 outside, 2 inside. Pretty cool plugging in flash drives *inside* the case!

The device is installed and detected as "Fresco Logic", per the software.

No BSODs, no forgetting-the-device-install, works flawless. I rebooted about 10x just to be sure, unplugging and re-plugging.

The cards that did *not* work are the VIA 805 and Renesas units. 3 of them.

 

Thanks again!

[[HOW TO] Install USB on XP with Skylake]

I have Skylake and an ASUS z270M Plus (Z270 mini-ATX) motherboard.

I have successfully installed XP SP3 32-bit, but I cannot get USB to work.

I do not think it has ASMedia SATA ports...Intel only.

ACPI is working in XP, and I enabled "xHCI handoff" in the BIOS.

I tried 3 different PCI > USB cards and they either forget the install every time I reboot, or I get a bluescreen BSOD when I plug in USB devices.

Can someone please help me to get USB working?
