Did something happen to your system just before this problem appeared? Typically the chipset driver will enable the usb ports and unless you reformatted you should not see that error.

Open device manager. Any yellow exclamation points?

You can try reinstalling itunes etc before you plug in. I have an ipod an iphone so I have been through this before.
Just uninstall itunes then restart then restart itunes plug in your itouch and see what happens..
