    Hello guys

    I have installed XP on my aspire 5920G.
    Everything works good except my USB ports.

    I Installed the Chip Driver but they still dont work.

    In the Bios i dont see any option to anable/diable USB Ports.
    I did a Bios Flash but it hasnt changed.

    i found drivers on the acer page but i havent seen any USB drivers.

    In the Device manager there are questionmarks at the USB-Root and few more for every USB Port i have.

    Hope anyone has an idea.

    cheers

    You need to find the correct driver, but as Acer never designed this laptop to run XP your not going to find the driver there.

    Why don't you just either use Vista, or install Windows 7 (which has the option of XP mode).
