How to handle USB tethering xp android
Hi Hollis Riley I searched a solution that may help you solve your problem. Tethering works fine in Ubuntu,Linux,Windows Vista, windows 7 OS without modifications. But it’s a different story in windows XP for it has drivers that need in USB tethering.
Install this configuration file:

-
Save it in an easy to find place.
-
When finish saving connect your android with the DATA cable that is with the phone when given to you and connect to the Computer.
-
At your phone go into Settings > Wireless and Network>Tethering and portable hotspot.
-
On Tethering, check USB tethering.
-
After that you will be prompt by a dialog box on your computer saying “new hardware” select “No, not at this time” then hit next.
-
Then click (Install from list or specific Location) then hit next.
-
Hit Browse and click the configuration file you save then click next.
-
When finish downloading just click Finish.
