Hope this is the correct forum. Here goes, My USB devices were working fine up untill I went to Windows Updates and downloaded all the latest updates. This is when all my problems started. Now when I plug in a USB device I get a balloon on my task bar stating that my "USB device is not recognizied". I have done all the troubleshooting and this landed me here at this forum. Can anyone help? I have XP PRo with all the latest updates.

You can try two things, reload the chipset drivers from the MB CD. If that fails to solve the problem, try defaulting your BIOS. It is possible you have a problem with your Windows OS installation and require a repair or reload of the OS.
