USB Port problems

I was having problems with the ZBoard software, I was unable to uninstall it. Thanks to Mc Adam for his advice (threadhttp://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=129911)
Anyhows once I removed the software I had a problem with a game ports. I get this message:
This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)
If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system.
Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device.

I have followed the trouble shooting advice to no avail. I did not have a problem with this device before, I know this as I checked the device manager for the original problem ( the Zboard has problems if you change ports)

All my problems started as I was getting a cpu fan error. So I pulled my rig apart and gave it a needed clean. When I was putting all the cords (keyboard, mouse zboard) I stuck the zboard cord into a different usb port, this is how I came to discover that the zboard software has a problem with ports.

Anyhows I now have a problem with my usb port. I have tried a xp repair, but in all honstey Im not sure what I am meant to do with that utility. Have tried a system restall and that did not fix it. I have run AVG, Asquared, Adaware and spybot also. Some of the USB ports work and some dont.

My system spec are:
xp proffesional sp1
x86 6 model 2137mhz
NVIDIA Geforce 7600 GT

If some one can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
