Megaplayer 515 shows as USB PRODUCT

Hi all,
Hope somebody can help me out here...
I've the Megaplayer 515 and it worked just fine for about a year. I just wanted to download some music to it and I noticed that Windows XP doesn't recognize it anymore. In Device Manager, it shows up as <USB PRODUCT> under IDE/ATA/ATAPI-controllers. The device itself indicates to be connected. I tried the following:
1. Set USB legacy support to Enabled/disabled/Auto: no change;
2. Reflashed bios to 9.20 -> I was using a beta bios from MSI to test and thought that may do the trick - bad luck ... no change.
3. In Device Manager: enabled "Show hidden devices" and uninstalled the <USB PRODUCT>. Then restarted the system and plugged the MP in again. The Hardware Wizard showed up and I choose Auto everywhere. It starting installing the following device: %USB\GenericDeviceDes% and then asked me for the following disk "%DiskName%. It seems that Windows is looking for Stums.sys. However, when I point to the file, the hardware wizard says there was a problem installing the hardware.
4. Tried reinstalling all USB-devices: I uninstalled all USB drivers through Device manager and restarted the PC. No luck, still <USB PRODUCT>
I tried all USB ports and disconnected all other USB devices. I'm getting sick and tired of this ... Does anyone have another suggestion?
TNX!

BTW if the MP515 works fine in another computer, then at least the device isn't at fault then!
