I noticed a (?) missing driver but I could not read what it was; try right-click Update driver. http://www.epox.com/downloads.asp?class=DRIVERS

Also, 'some' hubs do not work properly with 'some' devices, so I would recomend that you purchase a USB card for your MOBO. I see no listings for 'EP-P4X00D'.

To identify your MOBO, use CPUz - http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html

the missing driver was a sound driver. i opend my computer case and it said it was a EP-P4X00D. i cant install cpu-z because my usb ports dont work. so you are saying that my usb ports are so old that thay dont work with newer devices? if so i should buy a new usb pci card.

If the USB devices work properly DIRECTLY connected to your MOBO and not off the HUB then it's the HUB. I am saying to disconnect the 'Powered HUB' and try ONLY the MOBO USB Ports.

i fixed the problem. i bought a pci usb card and everything works great now. my old usb ports was probably 1.0 and my flashdrive was 2.0. so thx jaquith.
