USB problems

I have a computer that I just replaced the hard drive and installed a legit Windows XP home well anyways the problem is that when I connect the printer and/or digital camera windows detects the new hardware but it wont find the driver even though I do have the correct drivers. Now I was able to install an IPOD and it did work so I know that the usb ports are working. Any help would be appreciated.

 

I did do that. I installed the driver first and then connected device still no go. I also tried to manually install the driver by browsing to the file where the driver was located and it didnt find it. Thanks for the reply

 

Yes tried that too and still didnt work.

 

did you install Service Pack 2? i think it has something to do with usb drivers. my usb is flaky without SP2.

 

Yeah it does have SP2, I didnt think about doing a system file checker. I will do that tomorrow pc is at the shop. I will let you know how it goes. Thanks for all the replies

 

SFC did not work anymore suggestions?

 

Have you tried booting into Safe Mode then going to the Device Manager and seeing if there are any "ghost" printers or cameras. If there are delete eveything and then, as TimW suggested earlier, reboot and let the PC redetect the items in question.
