quoted from usbman:
Microsoft in its infinite wisdom has made it impossible for end-users
to download the individual driver package of USB 2.0 drivers for
Windows XP. If you need the USB 2.0 drivers, MS now requires you to
download and install Service Pack 1. This is the only way to get the
drivers from Microsoft who promised USB 2.0 support to everyone who
purchased Windows XP.
