USB Hardware Unresponsive After Sleep--But Update Doesn't Help!!

[Guest]

The problem: My MS Keyboard, Receiver, and Remote Control periodically vanish
after waking from hibernation--usually after the SECOND time it hibernates, I
think, oddly enough. I use the IR blaster in the receiver to change channels
on my TV, so I can't record shows with Vista MCE when this happens.

The USB Stack Update purports to fix this exact problem, but it doesn't!
I've tried uninstalling it, rebooting, and reinstalling it, but the issue
persists. Can anyone help??

Here's the details on my home-made PC, if it helps:
ECS P4M890T-M2 (Via P4M890-based motherboard), Intel Core 2 Duo 6700, 2GB
DDR2 RAM, ATI Radeon x300, Hauppauge Win-TV-PVR 500MCE, integrated sound.

Anyone from Microsoft around that can help? This is very irritating. I
thought it might have to do with USB selective suspend, which (I think)
allows the PC to turn individual USB ports off when they're not being used,
but I've had the setting both on and off in the Power control panel, and it
doesn't seem to affect things.

have you turned off the usb power setting.
check Device Manager USB section and power tab of roots and uncheck the allow computer to turn off usb to save power.

Yep. Althought I'm not sure the setting is "sticking." I had to do it again
last night, even though I had set them properly earlier.

Any other thoughts? This is driving me crazy. I'm pretty sure that it's not
something about the devices, because the USB root hubs themselves disappear.
Isn't this EXACTLY what the patch was supposed to fix? Why didn't it work?
What else can I do?
