    I have a BT 2wire 802.11g USB wireless adaptor connected to a usb2 port on my computer. All is fine, i can surf the net, connect to my router etc.
    When i startup my computer it does not detect the wireless adaptor. I have to unplug it and plug it in for xp to detect it. Then all works fine.
    Does anyone know how i can get xp to detect it after a reboot without unplugging and plugging back in.
    All the drivers are up to date. All other USB devices work fine.
    Help????

    yep, try it on another USB port.

    Also, try upgrading USB drivers (motherboard manufacturer's website)
