mcabrera Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Hi All,A very specific question. After installing a full install of XP SP3, I found that some of my USB devices are no longer supported. Specifically, I found that USBD.SYS is gone after installation. Is the file still supported by Microsoft in SP3? Any idea why it might not be in the MSDN version? Do I have to get the file from my SP2 files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JedMeister Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I have no idea. I am running SP3 and its still there on mine (actually I've got it twice, one in drivers and one in dllcache). For interest its version 5.1.2600.0 (so XP SP0). I installed SP3 redistributable version (ie full version ~300MB) over the top of SP2. I think I just downloaded mine from the main MS download. So not sure even if its the same one as you have, I'd assume they'd be the same (but I could be wrong). I'd probably be a little concerned that its gone. Although, personally I'd probably just copy it across from somewhere else if you can, and see if that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilla Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 (edited) Hi All,A very specific question. After installing a full install of XP SP3, I found that some of my USB devices are no longer supported. Specifically, I found that USBD.SYS is gone after installation. Is the file still supported by Microsoft in SP3? Any idea why it might not be in the MSDN version? Do I have to get the file from my SP2 files?For a point of reference, I have MSDN CD containing WinXP Pro + WinXP Home, it is the original (aka Gold), service pack 0. I pulled the Pro portion and integrated SP3 using nLite, then I integrated the latest windows updates and a bit more using HFSLIP, then I removed just a few things using nLite. I used nLite to burn to CD. I used TomCat76's updates list (http://hfslip.org/hflists.html).After installing from my WinXP Pro w SP3 integrated CD, USBD.SYS is listed in c:\windows\system32\drivers. This is the only place it appears.Hope this helps,Lilla Edited August 12, 2008 by Lilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
