If your HP or Compaq PC was purchased prior to 2008, there is a Windows Vista USB rollup by Microsoft that resolves a variety of issues involving USB. To download and apply the software update and to learn more, please refer to the Microsoft support article 941600 Cumulative update rollup for USB core components in Windows Vista (in English).

note:

Some USB devices require USB device software drivers be installed before connecting the USB device to the computer, like multifunction printer/scanner/copiers. When installing a USB device always follow the installation documentation from the USB device manufacturer. In cases where the installation of a multifunction device has failed, it may be necessary to download and use a forced uninstall tool from the manufacturer's web site.

I don't really understand your question. The Mass Storage Controller Driver is available from either your computer mftr.'s website (if you have a branded OEM machine like an HP, Dell, etc.) and is included in the motherboard/chipset drivers OR you would get the driver from the motherboard mftr.'s website if you have a generic-built machine. You won't want to be updating these drivers from Microsoft Windows Update in any case. If you installed Windows 7 and haven't installed these drivers, that's your next step.

General information about drivers:

Never get drivers from Windows Update. Get them from:
1. The device mftr.'s website; OR
2. The motherboard mftr.'s website if hardware is onboard; OR
3. The OEM's website for your specific machine if you have an OEM computer (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).
Read the installation instructions on the website where you get the drivers.
To find out what hardware is in your computer:
1. Read any documentation you got when you bought the computer.
2. If the computer is OEM, go to the OEM's website for your specific model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers anyway)
3. Download, install and run a free system inventory program like Belarc Advisor or System Information for Windows.
