I will see what I can do. But i guess that i want do anything about it, i'm getting a new computer soon, and then my little brother will have to fix it if he wants to

Thanks for the answers :)
I will get a new computer later this year or early the next, so i guess that i wont care to fix this..
But my little brother will still have to if he decides he wants it

IF there is lots of "thanks" posts, its just becouse it seems to be a bit lag.. :C

Sorry we couldn't be of more help to you, but if you've decided on a new computer you won't regret it.

Windows 7 is a good operating system and there's plenty of choice at reasonable prices.

Thanks for the update.

After last Sunday neither my keyboard or mouse have been working.
Actually, none of my USB Devices work in my ports..
I have now done some testing, and this is what I have found out:

*None of my USB ports work.
*PS/2 does.
*If I Uninstall the drivers for the Universal Serial Bus Controllers the ports work until
they reinstall.
*After the drivers (?) for the Bus Controller are reinstalled automaticly the driver
installer says that my devices are unplugged.

Also for some reason my computer cant find any internet. "No internet access"
It should work, it has been for three years now.

I have been fiddling with the Device Manager and found out that if i right click and select "Uninstall" to the two "USB Root Hub"'s that show up, and to Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller and the Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller, and after clicking the "Scan For Hardware Changes" my keyboard and mouse lights up, and work!

Sadly the Drivers or whatever it is in the Universal Serial Bus Controllers tab reinstall automaticly.

I (Think? ) that i have done everything i am capeble to think of. And need help!

I am quite certain that this is not the drivers, since i have been (Atlest tried!) installing the updates for them after my problem occured.

I would be extremely happy if anyone out there can reply with a possible solution to my Internet Problem, and USB problem!

(This post will probably have terrible writing, since this is not my native languange, SORRY! )

hmm it sounds like a virus for me. did you ever heard about the hiren-cd system?.. let me know so i can show u some tricks. =)

Chris, the OP carried out a full scan using Malwarebytes, which did show up a badly infected system, but even after deleting the crud he's still got the problem.

I'm not familiar with the hiren-cd system so how does it work?

okay.. is kind of a linux os (but is xp) running only thru a cd and none of your data & or hardware will be affect it. with hiren-cd you will be able to boot up (mini xp) and then you could test your hardware (like your USB'S & or ethernet). I personal use that software when im not sure if is a virus or a hardware problem on a alptop or a desktop. heres more info and the image is there to download it Hiren's BootCD 14.1 - All in one Bootable CD » www.hiren.info

heres a better link for it Download Hiren

I have reinstalled Windows 7.
And now my system seems to work perfectly!
I have no idea what could have caused my problems, but I suspect that it could have been some Vista files that got corrupted during the update to windows 7.. Or something like that :)
Becouse, as I may have forgotten to say, i did not do a clean install of Windows 7, I just upgraded
Thanks for all the tips and stuff!
