Well I didn't know where to put this but here it goes.

I installed a p4 2.6 400 fsb and oc'd it to 3.3ghz (I'm happy)
Everything works great accept for the printer. I thought I had a driver issue, But I don't. The printer runs off USB. When I drop the fsb to 110 no problems. I think it's kind of strange that the oc would affect the usb operation that much.

Any opinions on the matter??????
 
The USB works off a set frequency in the bios. If it goes above it then problems can occur.

See if you have a bios setting for it and check it's set to a number I can't quite remember at the moment !

Also check that USB has "assign IRQ" enabled.
 
well i have usb mouse and its working fine. 140fsb /4 divider and according to SISsandra the usb is running at 48mhz check sig for mobo and stuff. if you have SISsandra click on the the mainboard info. icon and scroll a ways down and look for usb controller 1 or something like that.

hope that helps out at all

edit: if you are running at 126 fsb what divider are you using? cause that might not enable the /4 divider in which case you are running your pci bus at 42 mhz now if you are running at the /4 divider then you might not have the usb speed where it should be. so you might have to live with it at 100fsb or even at 110fsb.
