Hey guys. I'm having problems with my USB ports. It's not recognizing anything I'm plugging in (bluetooth device, phone). I've tried the front and back but nothing happens. I looked in the Device Manager and there are exclamation marks by the USB related areas. I noticed I don't even see a "USB Root Hub" Here's an image: (Looking at properties shows this "Windows successfully loaded the device driver for this hardware but cannot find the hardware device. (Code 41)") My Computer Information Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 Motherboard Manufacturer: Asus Motherboard Name: A8AE-LE HP/Compaq motherboard name: AmberineM-GL6E Things I've tried- Uninstalled all of the USB Host Controllers then restarted, nothing. Tried to right click, and update driver, nothing. Scanned for hardware changes, nothing. Took out computer plug for over an hour, nothing. What else can I do? Help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Yeah. I tried it just now. Still not working! I guess I have no choice but to reformat? :\

I was reading the document last night, yes. Still doesn't work.

It's the original. It was working fine for years, now it just decided to not work anymore. Don't know why! Here's the link to my system: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/Tec...eriesId=1814722
