It works ok with MIDI though?  To be honest the USB is nice, but not 
necessary.  I was using USB in the past with no issues, but I recently had 
to reorganize the studio, and do to it's location USB to the XL-7 just 
isn't practial for me right now.  I'm using just midi, and really it's not 
THAT much slower, and you need to use it for Preset dumps and OS upgrades 
anyway.  If you can get by with MIDI, I say just use that, might not be 
worth teh hassle of sorting out the USB issues.  If you do want to pursue 
it further, there's PCI USB cards for like $14 that might help though.

DUDE!

 I have done this like four times trying to get it working. 
Including formating my H.D.!

I have had it up and running in no time in the past I am so lost for 
answers at this point. 

I am begining to think that it is a problem with the usb on the 
mother board in the computer.  But evry thing shows up fine in my 
device maniger in windows xp.  go figure.
