Okay, I bought a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 4-port Hub by Belkin so I could be on high-speed internet and have my Ipod plgged in at the same time (yes, I now know that wasn't necessary, I didn't realize there were more usb ports on the back of my computer tower. Duh.). Anyway, this thing didn't work and it also seems to have disabled all of my usb ports. When I plug in my Ipod the computer doesn't recognize it. My printer doesn't work (I hear the refrain "problems communicating with the printer" when I try to print). I've tried using different usb cords. I've unplugged everything and rebooted a few times. I can be online because I'm using an ethernet cord instead of the usb cord to connect my modem. I am crazy irritated here. Anyne have a clue what's going on?

Thanks for responding, Jack.

(1)- Motherboard Manufacturer & Model Number
It's a Dell computer, not sure of the model #, where would I find that?

Help me find this info, please

(3)- How many USB Ports in Rear & Front
one in front, 2 in rear

(4)- What Model Number of Belkin 4 Port HUB
I'm not sure which # on this thing is the model #. Maybe F5U244-ME. Or N10117

Not entirely sure what you mean. It has an Intel Pentium processor.

Purchased new in 2001

No, it came with xp


Under Universal Series Bus controllers it says I have two Intel® 82801 BA/BAM USB Universal Host Controller- 2442 and two USB Root Hub

Does any of that help?
