Hi,

In this case, I would suggest you to disconnect any USB devices from the PC
including USB mice and keyboard (use PS/2 at this time). Then reboot the PC
in safe mode and login as administrator.
Go to device manager, double click the Universal serial Bus Controllers.
Right click on the XXX PCI to USB Open Host Controllers and click uninstall.
If you see XXX PCI to USB Enhanced Host controllers (this controller is for
USB2.0), uninstall it as well.

Reboot the PC, windows should found new hardwares and install the proper
drivers.
Go to device manager to ensure the Universal Serial BUs Controllers are
reinstalled and working properly.

Re-connect the USB devices each at one time to ensure each one is working
properly before connect the other devices. Try re-install the webcam drivers
in this way.

Hope it helps.

Peter
