Cannot open "Game Controllers" under Windows XP

I think that's what it's called in English? This is my parent's computer, which has everything in Spanish.
Anyways, it's the icon under Control Panel that lets you see your gamepads/joysticks. If I double click on it, nothing happens apparently, and then 10 minutes later the window shows up, but it's frozen and trying to use it will just make the "This program is not responding" pop up.
Will getting rundll32.exe from another computer fix this? Or what can I do to fix it? Computer is virus free. Also another dumb problem it has is that most USB devices fail on it. My Creative ZEN, etc... Is there a way of completely removing all USB related drivers? I've reinstalled the chipset drivers but it doesn't fix it.
Motherboard is a Gigabyte-M61PME.

Still can't open game controllers.
Installed a fresh copy of Win XP Pro.
Guess what? Exact. Same. Problem.
Seems to be that this motherboard just doesn't like XP, or it's faulty.
