If I recall correctly, you should install the USB speed touch drivers first
reboot the system then plug in the modem to proceed. Worth a try! Art C. "Mark Walton" ozIneverreply wrote in message ... Hi I am setting up my A7N8X deluxe and have got to the last stage - install modem. My modem is the Speedtouch USB. It's the only USB device I own, when I plug it in I get a flashing red light on the modem (left-hand light) and windows does not try to install the device. According to at least one source, the flashing-light on that modem means there is too much USB activity. I wondered if it may be a problem with USB 2 compatibility so I switched to 1.1 only in the bios and tried again, same result. One (possibly not relevent) fact I noticed is that the USB and AGP are on the same IRQ. I couldn't find a way to manually force them to eperate -can anyone advise? Or is the problem likely to be something else? Thanks MarkW |

OK thanks I'll try that. I am gathering a list of options to try because
when I start, I will be offlined for a while (I have only one functioning system at the moment and I'm using bits to set the second one up, so I can't be on the net while I am at my most vulnerable! aaaaaaagh!)

Does the Speedtouch have a separate "wall wart" plugin transformer for power ? There are some ADSL USB modems that draw their power from the USB cable, and the Alcatel 330 "Frog" modem, for example, draws ~500 milliamps, which is the limit for a USB port. The result is sometimes the port shuts down. I have a Speedtouch 1000 with Ethernet port, and the flashing red LED operates during the self-test at powerup. After testing is complete, the green LEDs flash and eventually go solid green, indicating sync is complete. Paul "Art C." wrote in message ...
