It sounds like the incorrect version of the USB controller’s drivers have somehow been installed. To fix the problem you’ll need your Windows CD to hand, but first, locate the following files in the Windows\System32\Drivers folder: Uhcd.sys, Usbhub.sys, Usbd.sys. Rename all three (we suggest replacing the .sys extension with .old), then extract fresh ones from your Windows CD.

To do this, run System File Checker by clicking Start, Run, typing sfc and pressing [Return]. Select Extract one file from the installation disk, type uhcd.sys into the ‘Specify the system file you would like to restore’ box and click Start. Make sure that the ‘Restore from:’ box points towards the Win98 directory on your CD-ROM, and that the ‘Save file in:’ box points towards C:\Windows\ system32\drivers. Click OK, and when Windows finishes restoring the file click OK. Now repeat the process for Usbhub.sys and the Usbd.sys. Finally, click Close and restart when prompted.
