I have a fault signal, exclamation in yellow triangle, troubleshoot in Control Panel says "The driver for the USB Controller is not installed".

Then it offers to install latest driver but comes up with a negative result. It further says "There may be problems with PnP devices"

Ihaven't found anything not working so far, what might it be?

I have a Belkin powered hub with USB outlets for several devices but they all seem to be working.

Yes a bit of good thinking no doubt it is something that you have had in one of your USB ports and removed it.

I have found a little solution? on the Hardware Properties it now says "Code 28", and there seems to be a lot of reasons why yhat might appear, including an error in the BIOS which I am not touching, but for now I will plough through the list of remedies.

So CODE 28 is the mystery root.
