First things first system specs please.

Second you are going to have to look in device manager (type device manager in search) and go to the usb ports to see if they are all there and working. ther shouldn't be yellow triangles on them.

You could (use the snipping tool) upload a pic for us

using the snipping tool here is a look at my device manager.

Do you have any media in the USB drives? If they're empty and you have "Hide empty drives in the Computer folder" checked in your Folder Options they will not show.

I had the USB problem as well. Very annoying. For me the fix was as easy as manually updating the chipset drivers with Intel's INF Updater (you get it from their download center) (Use the Vista x64 or x32 drivers)

Everything seems to be working fine now. Hope this helps!

Thanks USB looks fine in dev mgr the only thing there was a question abt non plug and play.
