If the OS is looking for drivers for a removable device it will certainly not be 
the motherboard chipset USB drivers ? if it were then it would never know you had 
plugged anything in ?, most likely something from the Vista DVD , whenever XP had 
this sort of problem it was usually looking for usbstor.sys from the i386 folder 
on the XP CD ?

Cheers HC
