Computer won't detect camera

All of a sudden my computer won't detect my Rebel XT. I replaced the USB cord but nothing is even detected in "My Computer" or in the Device Manager. I am sure that the USB ports work properly as they work with other devices.  I reinstalled the software it came with and tried changing the communication settings on the camera. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I have tried other USB cords though. And still none recognize my camera. Any other USB works great on my computer and and my MAC picks up anything else I plug in with a USB. 

Mine is hit/miss. I will power on/off the camera a couple of times before it is detected. I think I've also made sure EOS utility was closed completely.

What sort of USB rope would you say you are utilizing? I experience experienced issues with a few lines in that past (albeit typically it detects my camera and hence drops it when EOS utility burdens). I've discovered that just lines with channels on them (the dark plastic barrels toward one side) work reliably. I'm not persuaded it's what causing your issue, but rather thought I'd bring it up.
