I recently bought a Maxtor 200GB external USB drive for backup and
storage purposes. It came with a backup utility called "BackupKingX",
apparently a Taiwanese product. I installed it to give it a try
(requires Microsoft .NET 1.1 to operate). Software is mediocre, much
slower than the native Microsoft backup supplied with XP Pro. So I
uninstalled it. During installation, it installs new USB drivers
called "USBButton.sys". Problem is that if "USBButton" is uninstalled,
the original MS drivers no longer work! All USB devices are
inoperable! Device Manager reports that the "drivers cannot be loaded,
may be corrupted". Uninstalling and re-installing does not help, same
result! Is anyone familiar with this @#^%$*&&& malicious product? I
attach the "USBBtn.inf" file for the tech savvies here if that is of
any use. Many thanks in advance for any help.

Apparently attachment does not open, so I append here the text of
"USBBtn.inf":
[Version]
Signature = $CHICAGO$
Provider = %MFGNAME%

[DestinationDirs]
DefaultDestDir = 10,system32\drivers

[SourceDisksFiles]
UsbButton.sys = 1

[SourceDisksNames]
1 = %INSTDISK%

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Windows 2000 Sections
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[DefaultInstall.ntx86]
CopyFiles = DriverCopyFiles
AddReg = DriverAddReg

[DriverCopyFiles]
UsbButton.sys,,,0x60 ; replace newer, suppress dialog

[DriverAddReg]
HKLM,%CLASSKEY%,LowerFilters,0x00010000,UsbButton

[DefaultInstall.ntx86.services]
AddService = UsbButton,,UsbButtonService

[UsbButtonService]
ServiceType = 1
StartType = 3
ErrorControl = 1
ServiceBinary = %10%\system32\drivers\UsbButton.sys

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; String Definitions
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Strings]
MFGNAME = "InsPro"
INSTDISK = "Usb Button Install disk"
DESCRIPTION = "Usb Button for DataStor"
CLASSKEY =
SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{36FC9E60-C465-11CF-8056-444553540000}

Paul, did you have any luck! My computer just reboots continuously and am unable to access XP after uninstalling `BackupKingX` (a sad utility)

Any advise?

Cheers Mike MM
