USB Devices not recognized

I have 2 USB hubs, one 4 port, one 5 port. Neither are recognized by my Windows XP SP2 machine. I have seen many people who have this prblem, but there doesn't seem to be any real solution. Any help?

Thanks, I know I am not alone now
I don't see what the problem is. They worked and then when I unplugged them and plugged them back in, they won't be recognized. Even though my printer will work in the usb port that the hub plugs into. I am about to try loading my original usb drivers for my motherboard again and hope it works.

You could use Driverguide.com (just make sure your pop-up blocker is on).
Sign in with:

drivers
all

and put the file name in the search box. Make sure you have the right version for your system.

If all USB devices don't work, check the "Enable USB Controller" setting on your BIOS (I had this problem a couple times).
