Accidentally deleted USB host controller

[daddystabz]

I recently stupidly accidentally deleted my USB host controller 1 driver and since then the USB ports on the front of my CyberpowerPC computer do not work. I tried calling CyberpowerPC and they sent me to the Gigabyte website to download the Intel Chipset and Inf files. After installing them I still have the exact same issue. I cannot roll back the computer through restore point before the date this happened either because there is not a restore point available for this time.

When I go into Device Manager there is an exclamation point under the 'Other Devices' section for "Intel(R) C600/X79 series chipset USB2 Enhanced Host Controller #1 - 1D26 saying "An error occurred during the installation of the device: The driver installation file for this device is missing a necessary entry. This may be because the INF was written for Windows 95 or later. Contact your hardware vendor."

Does anyone know how I can fix this issue and get my front case USB ports working again please?

first u would try uninstalling it from device manager again and then restart the computer and then check to see if still shows an exclamation mark in device manager.

if that doesn't work you can try installing the driver manually in device manager. here is a link to instructions on how to perform this:

Right click on that and select update driver, the let it auto-seach for it.

So I should try deleting it in Device Manager to uninstall it? CyberpowerPC recommended I not try that. Is that what you mean?

Already tried that several times. It keeps giving me the message above about missing a necessary component to complete installaion.
