I typed up a detailed reply, but it got lost. (I clicked on something before I got the "reply posted" message.) I will try to reconstruct it another time. I know I have posted the same thoughts, so perhaps they are in the archives. Key points:
(1) Carefully clean up device drivers (including unneeded hidden ones--don't get rid of the needed ones), but esp. get rid of e-mu usb drivers in device manager to do a clean install.
(2) Make sure E-Mu is off and its usb is not connected.
(3) Print out e-loaded/usb installation instructions; do them step-by-step, putting check marks after each step.
I know how frustrating it can be.
Watch the usb device installation/enumeration take place via device manager. For sample screenshots of the process, see http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/xl7/files/e-loader%20issues/
Hope this helps.
