Re: ok, yet another e-loader question...

2006-01-11 by steve_the_composer

Over the past several years I have tried a number of times to get 
Windows XP to accept the E-Mu e-loader usb drivers. I tried all 
kinds of work arounds without any success.  My guess (100% 
speculation) is that Microsoft changed something in the usb 
enumeration process for the sake of plug 'n' play convenience that 
makes hardware not available via usb.

I would be very happy to have usb capability with e-loader on the XP.

My guess is that someone has to figure out a way to get both usb0 
and usb1 drivers registered past the point where the XP OS gets hung 
up.  Unfortunately, I don't know enough about XP to be able to 
figure out how to do that.

Anyone else have suggestions?

(BTW I got as far as having one or the other e-mu drivers accepted 
by XP, but never both at the same time. Regrettably, I don't recall 
how I did that.)
