slight Driver Issue... Options

[jutzy]

Windows 7 has started to play up, whenever i restart my computer i cannot use my USB keyboard and mouse and my network cards dont work


i have had to use a ps/2 keyboard and mouse..

i went into device manager and i saw that all my usb ports failed to start and that my network cards also failed to start... to fix this i had to click uninstall and then rescan for hardware changes... after that it worked almost instantly.

I want to know why it is doing this and how i can fix it...

I dont want to have to take two keyboards and two mice to respawn so any help is aprriciated:

P.S I dont realy want to reinstall os but if i have to i will - Last LAST FINAL Resort

hm i dont want to miss respawn... however it is my windows because i just installed ubuntu and the keyboard and mouse have no issues... thanks for the suggestion deadman. great... i hate reinstalls means i have to do backups and stuff... i wonder if i can do a windows boot restore or somthing.

any last options before i choose the ultimate painful goal.

Slight edit: Rebooted into windows and keyboard/mouse/drivers working fine? wtf? needed a secondary os to give it a kick in the butt?

sometimes the sfc scan will replace missing files without telling you its replaced them.
