A lot of the time, if you have the old software installed, in prevents xp
form doing the right thing. I'd recommend you 1. disconnect the device from
you're computer, 2. uninstall the old software, 3. reboot your computer, and
4. plug in your device. Does it work now?
If this isn't the case, ask Delkin if there is a firmware update for the
device. (We've had some old devices like this in the past that had a
firmware that wasn't compatible with XP. Also, some manufacturers sell a
device with several different firmware versions (for the same model, etc.
w/o any other change in the product line).
Have you tried this on a 3rd machine?
good luck!
