It looks like they are part of the motherboard.
If they are physically damaged a competent repair shop can replace them probably a couple hours of labor ($120-$200 depending on the place. If they dont work at all then I would just buy a USB PCMCIA card which plugs into the side instead ($20-40).

buy or download a windows disk. insert it and format the partition and install a fresh copy
Have you checked drivers not only for the usb, but for the chipset of the system itself. Also, have you installed service pack 2?
Might also just visually inspect for troublesome fingers in the ports themselves; often get bent and short out.
Good luck
