USB erratic after update a couple weeks ago

Durn thing has a mind of its own. Whole groups of USB ports turn themselves on & off every 10 minutes now.

VMWare - 64-bit guest operating system with 32-bit Windows XP installed and sysprepped with the -reseal -activated -mini options. On my WDS, I have a capture image file based off of Windows 2008, x64. On the guest OS PXE boot, WDS automatically detects x64 architecture and gives me the x64 menu options which includes the x64 capture image. When it comes to the area to pick which volume to capture, the list is blank. Shift+F10 does not show my C drive. So I am wondering if I sysprepped it incorrectly or if I just don't have the storage drivers for it? I have tried various sysprep.inf files including the buildmassstorage=yes option. Ideas? Thanks, Chase
