Installing problems X3 on new computer

Like (0)
I am trying, through Monkey, to "connect" to my X3 Live on another computer.
The computer (old Windows XP) gives a message that the X3 is connected (and want me to install through Windows installer - that I cancel). When starting Monkey however - it can not connect to it. Monkey tells me to download Driver. I havre tried again and again (both uninstalling and not inbetween). But Monkey can not connect to the X3 and repeately tells med to download Driver.
???
Have you made all the right connections ?
Do you get any sort of error message when trying to download and install the driver?
Have you tried downloading the driver installer?
Select your Device, Drivers, Your OS from the dropdowns.
I have tried about everything.
When installing the driver and connecting to the POD in the end, and when Windows own hardware installer starts, I after a while get the error message "Code 10".
The Monkey does not "find" it and also notes that the driver is not installed.
When I open the "Line6 Audio-Midi Devices" in ####Windows "Control Panel", it also does not connects to/recognices the X3.
Windows however always gives me the note that it has found the X3 when connecting it to the USB-port (always use the direct port from the computer as specified), but then also wants to start the hardware installer since it does not thinks it has a driver software.
I will try with a MIDI-connection, but I litterary will have to go digging for my cables (there are in a boathouse and I have to shuffle some snow to reach it) or buy some new ones. And I haven't used the MIDI-ports on my computer like in 10 years, so I do not know if they will work propperly.
IT WORKS!
I connected it to a USB-port on my hub instead (the driver installation program told me to connect it to the direkt port on the computer and not to a hub). And now Monkey finds it...

Stupid computers.
Oddly enough, in the USB trouble shouting guide on of the thing to try is a hub!! Go figure. Glad you got it going.
