Anytime I plug a flash drive or printer into the USB Port, it will not recognize it. How do I install them on my computer? They worked fine before, but now they won't do anything?

Using Windows XP

Look under device manager and see if there are any yellow or red marks on your usb controllers. If so try reinstalling the drivers for them.
Also check the bios and make sure they are turned on.

Definitely a problem with yor usb controllers or with the actual hardware itself.
