Win XP failure

Seth.B
So, obviously I'm new to this website, but I was hoping for (quite) a bit of help. I'm running (or rather, was) WIN XP on my Dell Dimension C521, and I do not want to upgrade. (Even though Vista installation fails anyway) My problem is this: everything is failing.

USB hook ups not working

Kernatho
Very strange, Everything I plug into my USB ports on desktop lights up and is recognized but nothing happens. For example, I have a logitech mouse that lights up red when correctly connected to the USB port, and this happens, but the mouse will not move on the display.

PC w/WIN 2000 Pro (v5. 0); HP Deskjet 720C Series - printer seems to be working fine, but when I click on the printer icon a Printer Driver Problem: Data required by the printer driver cannot be found or has been corrupted message shows up; as best I understand things, the driver issue is WIN 2000 related, not HP.
