Can't 'Hot Swap' devices on A7N8X-E USB ports?

[Gregg3]

Boy....I hate to even posts this as so many people are having USB 2.0
problems on their boards.

I'm lucky enough to have USB 2.0 support working on all 6 ports, but I
can't 'hot swap' anything.

Usually I just plug in my USB device and windows comes up with 'New
Hardware Found' and sets it up and that's it.

On this particular board, I have to reboot for Windows to recognize
the device.

Any suggestions?

PS This is the second Asus board I've had USB problems with. I had no
USB 2.0 support on my last A7N8X and like someone else who's message I
just read, the board itself was defective. I also had to buy a USB 2.0
card to fix the problem. Seems like this is may be major problem with
Asus or at least the A7N8X.

FWIW, I've had a (plain jane) A7N8X v2.00 for over 9 months and hot swap
USB devices (in the front 2 ports) all the time without any problems at
all under WinXP Pro. All I did was install WinXP Pro(SP1) then the
Nvidia Nforce2 drivers, maybe the deluxe boards are just buggy?
