missing driver "USB Host to Host Bridge"

Lyceum · 08-20-2007, 03:02 AM

I am trying to transfer files from one computer to another computer, using a USB port. It says I need that driver so my Windows XP can detect the usb cable.

Can anyone help? or know where to download driver?

Did you got to "Start, Control Panel, System, Hardware, Device Manager, and then open the + in the USB area, then right click any red or yellow marks in that area and select "update driver?"

Yes, I went to update driver, it searched through my computer and it did not find the driver. I even tried this on my other 2 computers,same message.

It connected to windows update to search for driver on internet, after update it still have the same message.

I searched through the internet and read a forum that said "It is impossible to use a USB cable from one computer to another."

I think I may have wasted $10 on the usb 2.0 cable, If this problem cannot be solved I will and should have bought the 1GB USB memory stick which should work since most computer will reconize the memory stick driver.

Darn, never gave the USB cable a thought, was focused on the driver that you said was not working. I think the USB drive would be by far the best option for you.

If I had known about this,I wouldn't have bought the USB cable and go for the USB memory stick.
