I'm not sure this will help at all or not, but Microsoft has a utility called USBVIEW that shows a lot of the USB parameters. I have used it with DLP Designs USB modules to help me identify if a device has enumerated(?) properly. It shows whaich hub devices are connected to, their names, IDs. etc.
I think I downloaded it from either the DLP Design or FTDI website, I could not trace back where I got it from exactly. It is copyrighted by Microsoft.
