I would reinstall Windows over itself *with all USB devices unplugged*. Don't worry, you won't lose anything.

If that fails, you need a USB PCI adapter card:

: I follow your demand to modify the Window Registry for ACPIOption > (it was setted with the value of 3) and I tried 1 or 2 and I get the same results :
: USB Peripherals are not recognised ???

: Have you something to suggest ?

: Mikel..

: Actually, I needed the IRQ section - not Conflicts/sharing.

: Let's disable ACPI:

: Open REGEDIT.EXE. In the Registry under:

: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Detect

: is a DWORD by the name of ACPIOption, that contains the value 1.

: If not, create it.

: If you set the value to 2 and start hardware-recognition, Windows should readjust everything on APM and Plug&Play-bios after the restart and recognize all hardware again.

: Please post in this thread.
