Default "Parameter is incorrect" installing driver for any USB storage dev

Hi,

I'm getting a "parameter is incorrect" error when Vista Business RTM is
installing ANY USB storage device, whether flash or HDD based. I've tried
several of each and none work. It appears to find the device driver software
and goes to install it and that's when the error occurs.

Vista Business RTM was an upgrade to Windows XP Pro SP2, rather than a clean
install.

This is the information from the error report:

Description
Windows encountered a problem while installing device drivers for your USB
Flash Disk USB Device

Problem signature
Problem Event Name: PnPDriverInstallError
Architectu x86
Win32 error: 00000057
Inf name: disk.inf
Driver Package hash: e503a4f1d821a50e8760410a457dfaea2365371a
DDInstall section name: disk_install
OS Version: 6.0.6000.2.0.0.256.6
Locale ID: 1033

Extra information about the problem
Bucket ID: 12135484

I understand that this might be more a common issue than I thought. Has
anyone found a solution to this yet? All of my colleagues have done a clean
install and have no issue with USB storage devices. I wonder if this is as a
result of the upgrade, some old drivers or permissions issues causing the
problem?

Regards,
Paul
