USB Flash drive read as unknown device.

I recently installed an ABEL Xilinx program for my digital logic class and since I have it messed up my USB drivers. My printer is USB and it recognizes it fine but it doenst recognize my flash drive. When I plug it in it says its an "Unkown Device" and its "Ready to Use". Anyone know how I can fix this without reinstalling all my Mobo Drivers? BTW this comp is the one in my sig.

First thing you do when you have hardware problems is return the overclocks to stock speeds.

Then reinstalling the mobo drivers sounds like the next step, unless you just want to be done with it and do a system restore.

alright this program is really making me frustrated . One the program is not even working right. 2 I tried reinstalling/uninstalling the program and my drivers and as long as Xilinx is installed my USB drivers dont work properly. Could there be some kind of program conflict? Im about to go visual basic on this thing and change all the code in it.
