Default laptop suddenly does not recognise external DVD , CD or HD

suddenly , my lap top does not recognise my external CD or DVD recorder , nor
my ext WD 160Gb HD in any of the 4 USB sockets ...... strange , but true !

On connection a message occurs saying that there is a malfunction and
Windows XP(2) does not recognise it .... I would accept this if it were just
1 device .........

However it does recognise my scanner and VOIP phone ?

Please help
