      I would check in Device Manger and see if anything shows up as an Unknown Device. If not check Universal Serial Bus Controllers and see if anything there is not showing correctly. Then Click on Action at the top and click "Scan for hardware changes." I'm assuming you've tried multiple USB ports on the system. One more thing you might try is unistalling the USB Root Hubs located under Universal Serial Bus Controllers in Device Manager, though if you have a USB mouse and keyboard they will stop responding untill the system reboots, and then it could be a while before they are re-enumerated, and able to be used again (barring failing bus on the MB). Other than that I'm not sure where else to go on it. It could be a corruption in the USB.sys file.
