Question with my usb ports?

Recently i did a reinstall (Windows Xp Professional) .

I have 2 usb ports on my laptop, but only one that works, the other one is like totally dead, no matter what i plugged in, it has no effect, it doesnt detect anything, except for my fan, it works great. But other things, like keyboard, mouse, etc, it doesnt work. You guys know how can i fix the problem. Thanks

Answers:
Could it be that one out of four 'connectors' in your USB is not anymore connected.

I repaired my laptop's USB port by opening it and solder these connectors. If you don't want to fix it (by computer technician), then just buy usb hub and put it on another working usb slot.
Are the correct drivers installed?
go to device manager and to usb and make sure that none of the usb needs updated and says working properly
