Vista cannot find USB drivers

Every time I plug in a USB accessory, Vista can't find the driver - how do I
fix this?

Re: Vista cannot find USB drivers

Could you give us an idea of what type of USB accessory you are having
problems with? Hub, Thumb drive?

Re: Vista cannot find USB drivers

Locate and install the appropriate Chipset driver package for your
motherboard. Will be either Intel, VIA, nVidia or ATI.

Re: Vista cannot find USB drivers

I'm having the same issue. No matter what flash drive, accessory (optical
mouse), or other peripheral I plug in, it can't find the drivers at all. I
even bought a brand new "Vista compatible" flash drive-same issue. It seems
like all the generic USB drivers are missing or corrupted.
McCarty, I like your idea, but I'm not sure where to start. I have an
Intel Core Duo processor. Any help will be appreciated.
