USB Devices stopped working altogether

Hello Guys,

I am using Windows Vista 32 Bit Ultimate on Dell Inspiron 6000 Laptop. I
have 4 USB Ports which were working fine. Suddenly all the USB ports failed
and did not get recognized. I reinstalled Vista and the USB ports were
visible again. There was a great sigh of releif.

Guess what, the problem has cropped up again. I suppose after some of the
updates from Microsoft or Windows Defender are installed this happens. None
of the USB devices are recognized. Last time there was a chance because of
sleep and hibernation. But this time, I am sure that it was not because of
hibernation. I tried applying the hotfix for sleep and hibernation problem,
but it does not help.

Occassionaly the system says, USB device is not recognized, contact
manufacturer ...!

These are the inputs I have with regard to the problem. USB devices have
been a hell after I upgraded to Vista. Could anyone help me ??

I would greatly appreciate any of your help ...!
