XP Hogging USB?
I have XP & 98se on the same machine. Xp is on the second(slave) drive. When booted to 98 I can't use my USB printer or download pictures from my camera. It appears that XP is claiming ownership. How do I make it share?

You have to install the drivers for your USB devices following the proper sequence when booted into 98, they won't just plug and play - and they aren't going to work automatically just because they work when booted into XP. Usually you must install the drivers with the device disconnected, reboot, then plug the device in - but review your documentation to confirm this.

XP was added to the system on a seperate drive. Everything worked fine before that. If I unplug the Xp drive it all works fine on the 98 drive. Should I re-install the drivers on the 98 disk (with both drives connected)?
