My computer has an onchip USB. I enabled it in the motherboard, and kept the USB Keyboard support disabled. When i check on the USB devices in the system control panel, i see that the USB Root Hub has a problem. It suggests to check cabling and restart the computer. How do i fix this???

Not knowing your operatiing system...this maybe hard to answer - however try removing
the USB in the control panel - reboot and be prepared to install the drivers from your system. If running Win95 - before rebooting your pc go ahead with the USB removal and then run from your CD USBSUPP.EXE which is located D:\other\usb folder where D: is your
CD ROM. If your running ME or 2000 the system will automatically find the drivers, if Win98 check on the CD for the USBSUPP.EXE.

I`d aslo phsically check the cable is connected properly to the onboard pins and is not offset somehow.

You may need to install the drivers from the CD you should have got with the motherboard. Although a lot of times the Win 9x drivers will work, they will not always work fully.

If you do not have the driver CD that came with your motherboard, then take a look at the manufacturers web site, they generally have their own drivers available for download.
