I just did a clean install of 32bit XP - updated with all updates.
I have a question and a problem:
Question: Is there any specific drivers I should install for my system, since it is a 64bit dual-core (Opteron 165, see sig, top machine)? So far I have not installed any drivers except those from the nvidia CD (and updated them), for things like LAN, Sound, etc. I remember the last time I installed XP, I installed this amd64 driver, and also something for dual core if I remember correctly. However, everything seems to be working ok this time around without any special drivers.
Problem: When I plug in a USB device, a message pops up: "You should connect this device to a high-speed USB 2.0 port in order to get fast speeds". I am not sure what this is about. It seems that XP thinks my ports are 1.1 or something, but in Device Manager it says I have 2.0 drivers installed. The USB drivers I installed were found on the Nvidia cd supplied with my mobo (Ultra-D).
ps. Now that XP64 has been out for a while, would you recommend I install that instead of the 32bit I have now?
