BLUE SCREEN when USB device plugged in
 

Whenever I plug in a USB Device I get the following error
message:
Fatal Exception error 0E at 0028:ff029146 in VXD USBHUB
(05) 00000A26

I Have:

Cleaned up the device manager by removing any duplicate
entries,

Ran the INTEL USB check utility that indicates the usb in
working properly

Reinstalled the USB drivers using the latest driver
information form Intel,

Removed all usb devices and let the system reinstall them,

Verified I have the most recent version of the bios
Turned on Plug and Play in the bios,

Turned off Power management in the bios

Turned on USB Keyboard in the bios

Can't find USB Legacy support in the bios

Verified that the IRQ Steering is properly installed

Tried to set the Assign IRQ's to auto or system in the
bios but the bios on the toshiba does not provide this
setting.

Please help if possible. This is driving me nuts!!

SOLUTION:

After trying a dozen different things I used google to
serach for UXD USBHUB (the error from the blue screen) and
found a site (USB-DRIVERS.COM) that had a file (usb-win98-
a.zip) which contained four files, one of which was
USBHUB.sys. I loaded only that file in to the
windows/system32 directory replacing the old one and tried
again. Actually I renamed the old one so it would not get
deleted. This time no blue screan. YEAH!!!! Instead I
was prompted to load the drivers for the external drive
that I had plugged into the usb port. I then plugged in a
usb mouse and was again prompted for the drivers which
were already on the system. I guess the drivers I
previously installed from intel were older versions as
well.

Lesson learned: NEVER trust the USB drivers that come with
an old OS like windows 98. First thing to do is look for
the driver that the blue screen is making a refernece to.
This would have saved me many hours of frustration.
