Unplug the hub from the MOBO, uninstall, reinstall, the plug the hub back in when the computer has restarted from the reinstall.
USB gets effed up if the device is already connected when the software is installed.

The problem is it won't install drivers for the hub without it being plugged in. This hub, and a TON like it I've seen, is they use XP default drivers. I've uninstalled and reinstalled a dozen times with nothing attached to the hub. Doesn't work.

Might check your CMOS. My dads changed like yours and for some reason in the CMOS, the ports were turned off. I had to go in and turn on the USB ports before they would work again.

I've deleted from the hardware manager, yes, but the drivers still exist on the drive. When you reinstall the hardware it doesn't ask for the drivers to be installed, it just does it. However, if I go deep in to the XP files and physically delete the .inf files and driver files, it will require the XP cd to reinstall the hardware, thus giving me a brand new driver that isn't corrupt. Follow?
