Problem: My USB ports don't want to work anymore. I received an iPod Shuffle for Christmas and was able to download iTunes and set it up with no problems. It worked fine for about a week but then all my USB ports balked on me and I don't know what to do. My mother also received an iPod Shuffle, could attempting to accommodate both on one computer have screwed something up?

Operating System: Windows XP, Version 2002, Service Pack 3

Browser: IE and Firefox

Experience: Beginning to Intermediate

Problem started: About a month ago.

Steps Taken: Everything on this page and this page and this page. I also reloaded iTunes, restarted umpteen times and sacrificed to Baal. The iPods themselves work perfectly well.

Error Mssg: USB Device Not Recognized. One of the USB devices on this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it.
