    XP USB Data Invalid Message...HELP!!!!!!

    Hey folks,

    I'm having trouble with my usb devices.
    I have an Iomega portoble HD which works fine.
    I plugged it in yesterday and windows detects new hardware.
    Then I get an error message saying the device couldn't be installed. Data Invalid.
    I also just got a brand new USB audio/midi interface and am getting the exact same problem.

    Any suggestions would be much appreciated as I have almost no hair left due to utter frustration

    Thanks in advance

    Make and model of computer please.

    Did you buy it new or second-hand, and if the latter, from where?

    So ask him for it - the xp cd belongs to the dell - the licence for it is attached to the case.
