OK, first, let me start off by saying that I've tried every solution that was possible. I cut the power for over 45 minutes and it still happens. I couldn't edit the registry because the folder names didn't match the ones posted and I didn't want to jack up my computer any more than it currently is. I deleted everything USB and re-installed it...TWICE!!! If it's on here, I've tried it. Now for the situation... I bought a new HP laptop (which the estimated build date was 3 days ago and it still hasn't shipped, but you don't want me to get into that) and a printer along with it. I got the printer first, of course, and hooked it up to my desktop. Everything appeared to be working well. However, it seems that the HP software has hijacked my USB ports and will NOT let anything through. I first noticed it when I tried to plug in my iPOD nano which wouldn't be the first time one of those damn things f***** up my computer but I truly believe it's the printer. Basically, the only thing that can be recognized by USB ports. So, if anyone has any friggin clue how to undo what the evil HP has done, please let me know. I'm very computer savvy so if you happen to have a program source code or some interesting crazy s*** to try, I'll do it. I really wish that everything would work but if I can't get this fixed, I'm not buying HP anymore and everything ordered will go back cause it doesn't work.
