All right, so I did EVERYTHING I can think of to solve the fact that NEITHER my camera nor my printer will talk to my computer via USB.  USB is enabled in BIOS, the cord is fine, no IRQ conflicts, etc.  Any idea what I might try now?
Thanks!

ShaneHave you installed the drivers for the hardware before connecting it?

[glb]Flame[/glb]THING is Flame, it may not even need drivers if the OS is post-98. Every Windows OS from ME upwards automatically detect devices and install the appropriate drivers itself.

Worth a try, but UNLIKELY. Unless you have 98, in which CASE Flame is very much correct...  Unplug ALL USB devices.
Open Device Manager.
View, Show Hidden Devices.
Uninstall all devices under USB Controllers.
Uninstall all devices under Storage Volumes.  Say no to any reboot prompts until you are finished.  Also, if a Storage Volume doesn't uninstall, ignore it and move to the next one.
If you have a yellow ? with unknown devices, uninstall all of the entries there as well.

When this is done, reboot TWICE.

Reconnect the USB devices and see if they're recognized properly.
