DELL LATITUDE D830 USB DEVICE DRIVER

What do you know, it worked! After chatting with the users support reps and trying a little dead chicken waving with drivers from the Dell website, we decided uninstall all the USB controllers in the Device Manager, reboot the machine, and let windows redetect and reinstall all the appropriate drivers. But now I'm beginning to worry that the problem runs deeper and that a full format and reinstall would be more appropriate. But now they are powerless to help us understand what is going on.
