RE: No USB device working in Vista while it is recognized through bios

sjors123,

Here is a site that offers steps for troubleshooting USB issues. It may not
be for the model of pc that you own, but that fact doesn't matter as the
steps involved hold for other brands as well:

If this information doesn't help resolve your issue, post back and perhaps
we can find another approach.
