Problem with USB-ports and Bluetooth

Hi,

I got a Toshiba Tecra S1.
All of a sudden my peripheral hardware on USB-ports is no longer recognized
(webcam, external Harddrive, memory stick). I can see that the memory stick
gets power through USB.
Simultaneously my bluetooth is nog longer functioning.
I removed the bluetooth from the device manager. When I try to re-install
the BT-stack, it "hangs", and does not finish installation.

Network is functioning perfectly, just like the rest of the laptop.

Win Xp with SP2 is the platform, and lately I received many updates.

What can I do to solve this problem?

Wim

This solution has worked for some people with problematic USB devices:

Locate the file INFCACHE.1 in C:\Windows\inf

Right click on the INFCACHE.1 file, select Properties >Security > Edit, and give
your account full control.

Delete INFCACHE.1, or rename it to INFCACHE.1.BAK or temporarily move to your
desktop.

REBOOT

If this does indeed fix the problem, you can delete the INFCACHE.1 file, or the
..BAK file. Windows will not recreate it.
