USB wont work. Can someone please help

I'm having major problems getting any device to work on my usb ports.

If anyone has some suggestions?

symptoms,
my device detection wizard loads the process twice.
the device will not output. but the program writes to it, and completes that process. I get no error messages, it just behaves as if the function was completed. I had the device working a month ago. It is a Plotter/Cutter.


I was wondering if my devices may be mismatched in the bios?
My PCI Device listing is as follows
BUS DEV FUN VENDOR DEVICE SUID SSID CLASS DEVICE CLASS IRQ

Please help if you can, I have to get this thing working before friday... it has work to do!!!

you have to state the type or model of your device to get replies, state lets see what we can do about it

Reinstall your USB drivers:
Navigate to Device manager, find a branch named "USB Controllers" or similar
Right click the one thats the problem (or all of them if you dont know which), select Uninstall
Reboot your machine and windows will autodetect the USBs and reinstall their drivers.

Did you check for updated drivers for your plotter/cutter? is the problem only limited to that device?
does it still work when plugged into another pc?
tried different USB ports? including the one directly connected to your motherboard? If its a PCI card, tried using a different slot?
