I grasp that for your USB is not recognizing devices until you have rebooted your system. You have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers but no change.
Would you try these steps
Go to Computer
Right click and choose manage
Double Click on Device Manager
Click on the USB to expand
Right click on one of the root hubs and choose properties
Click on the power management tab
Uncheck allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
Repeat the above process for the remaining USB root hubs.
Please let me know the outcome.
