Since there are only 2 options:

1. (Data -) and (data +) pins can be swapped or
2. the internal cable makes no USB2.0

For point 1: replace pins just - the plug is the black plastic-tongues Raise a little.For point 2: go into the BIOS and enable USB 1.x, then are also the remaining USB devices recognized.

if he does not recognize the usb Control Panel / Administration / Computer Management / Disk Management there must be the path of the USB modify. Standard is the letter "G "!!!!

Try to update the unknown device driver from within Device Manager. First try letting Windows search for one. If that fails, go back and choose "Select from a list" and then "Have disk". Browse to the device CD and look for the appropriate Windows folder there. Try browsing to the Windows CD (Win9x folder or i386 folder). Lastly, try updated drivers from the manufacturer's web site. Try uninstalling the unknown device, unplugging the device and rebooting. Replug when back in Windows.
