Thanks Joseph, Is this similar in Windows XP? Also, do I need to have the hub plugged into the USB port on the PC or will it let me uninstall the internal USB ports?

Go to Control Panel/System/Hardware/Device Manager (under Vista, it is Control Panel/Device Manager). At the Device Manager, press TAB to go to the tree view. Press END to go to "Universal Serial Bus Controllers". Press Right Arrow to open it. Then press Aplication Key at the item called "USB Hub" then press enter on Uninstall. A confirmation message should appear. Press Enter on Yes button. Do this for the other USB Hub. Then press Application Key again and select "Scan for Hardware Changes." It should detect the new USB hub.

I have read on the internet that a file called usb.inf is generally the culprit but have not found out how to repair it.

What is really odd is that I had a USB hub with a couple of things in it when this last occurred and now the hub and all of those devices are being denied. I have tried each of them individually in the other computer and they are all fine. This is definitely a headache.
