I agree! Hardware support is very low supported atm without Windows-API.

Hardware-Support is the job for drivers. Direct Access is not allowed on XP.
The time of direct-hardware-programs are over (because the PC has too many diffrent configurations; thats why drivers are envented).

Here are some references for communicating to USB port(s) in different languages. If you are fluent in these languages you could convert them or someone here may be able to convert these samples for you
