    You need a Service Pack, this will give you the USB driver updates you need to the ports to work. Below is the current service packs avail.

    Windows XP - Service Pack 2

    Windows 2k - Service Pack 4

    As you have re-installed your OS did you also re-install your chipset drivers as they are needed for sucessful recognition of USB and other hardware etc
