Well a few weeks ago, my laptop started not reading USB devices. It would take it upwards of a half hour to finally recognize it, but if I had it plugged in and rebooted, it would recognize it right away. Scanned quite a few times with many different AVs/AnitSpywares (Avira, Avast!, NOD32, Trend Micro, Spybot S&D, Adaware, the works) and nothing turned up. It's really freaking annoying and now every here and there my laptop will just decide to freeze a program at random. I'll be playing a game not using MSN, but MSN will freeze. I've formatted and it still continues to do it. Any ideas as to what it could be?

If it continues after a reformat, be sure all drivers are up to date and possibly that the USB cable to the mobo isn't loose or anything.

All drivers are up to date and it happens even if I plug it into any of the 4 ports. New thing now, flash plug-ins like to randomly go unresponsive.
