XP Home SP3 "Unknown Device" Problem

[bej]

Installed VHS to DVD software with a Diamond VC600 Converter. Uninstalled with Revo. Installed driver only and another program.
Uninstalled both again with Revo.

I can't get rid of the device. Tried to delete, uninstall, update driver, etc.
Even deleted the hub, then the USB controller to no avail.
No device plugged in at all. USB\VID_0000.....etc is the device ID

What's irritating is that NONE OF THE FOUR USB PORTS WORK.
They all worked before, but not now.
Need some guidance !!!!!!!!!

(System Specs)
Gigabyte GMA-945GC
Core2Duo (E7500)
2GB DDR2
1-80gb IDE 1-500gb SATA
Nvidia GT430

Obviously, the Unknown Device got hungry and went out for breakfast. I fired up the system this AM and ALL IS WELL !!! Unbelievable. I had restarted several times, totally shutdown the system several times to no avail.
