Windows doesnt recognise USB's or something like that
Everytime I start windows, I get a "Found New Hardware" PCI device. I cannot install automatically because it cannot find the software. My USB peripherals wont show up although my ps2 and sound ports are all fine. I forgot how this began it was quite a few months ago and after holiday I just forgot about it, anyway my stats are:

XP pro ,SP 3, 2.4ghz quad core 2gb ram

In Device Manager I get 2 exclamation marks for "other" devices:

PCI device= PCI Slot 7 (PCI bus 2, device 0, function 0) This device is not configured correctly.
Device instance ld: PCI\VEN_197B&DEV_2360&SUBSYS_8208104&REV_02\4&286339C6&0&0038

and

Unknown device=on PCI bus, Drivers not installed
Device Instance ld=ACPI\ATK0110\1010110

In "usb" I do not get exclamation marks, however I know they arent working because my mp3 player is not being picked up or any other peripheral I plug in:

Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller:
Location:PCI bus 0, device 11, function 1
Device is working properly (yeah right!)
Device Instance Ld:PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_026E&SUBSYS_81BC104&REV_A3\3&2411E6FE&0&59

There's also a "standardOpenHCD USB Host Controller" and 2 "USB Root Hub"

for more info just ask me. Thank you so much in advance .

oh and I have tried systerm Restore to no avail.
