Sp2 destroyed USB function

[bmoag]

Since installing SP2 the USB ports on this computer do not
work. This is a dual boot system and the USB2 ports work
fine under ME: that is how I am posting this message.
There is no information about this through Microsoft. Any
solutions besides uninstalling SP2 forever?

Same here. In Device Manager I selected each of the first few USB
entries and did an Update Driver which fixed it:
