Justin,
I have so far failed to get USB working on my laptop. Would you be so
kind as to help me out and share the details of your fix? Or just a
pointer to the docs that you found?
What make/model of laptop do you have? I've got a Sony Vaio PCG-FX250.
Everything works great on it except for the bloody USB, and I must admit
that it's driving me nuts! ;)
Thanks a million!
Anthony Valentine
