um im not sure if i put this in the right place so sorry if its in the wrong place but i reformated my computer and the usb ports dont work so i went to device manager and pushed update drivers but it didnt find any so i went to the manufactures site (hp) downloaded the chipset drivers and then tired again it worked but part way through installing it said usbehci.sys is missing and im not sure what to do to get it working correctly.......thanks for any help
 
Running XP, must have SP1 or SP2 installed, check to verify that you have these USB 2.0 drivers from the Device Manager:

Date Version File name
29-Aug-2002 5.1.2600.1106 or later versions Usbport.sys
29-Aug-2002 5.1.2600.1106 or later versions Usbhub.sys
29-Aug-2002 5.1.2600.1106 or later versions Hccoin.dll
29-Aug-2002 5.1.2600.1106 or later versions Usbehci.sys

Any further trouble after that try:

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.
If you have a yellow ? with unknown devices, uninstall all of the entries there as well.

When this is done, reboot

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