CUPS 1.4.8 CPU Usage

Upon starting to run <cupsd.exe>, the CPU usage spikes to 99.9%, and 
killing it (through the C-A-D utility doesn't help.  It seems the 
<...\cups\backend\usb.exe> tile is the cause and can't be stopped 
without a system boot.

I think I have the proper commands in the object to open it, the 
parameters being </c detach O:\cups\sbin\cupsd.exe>.  I also believe I
have correctly unzipped all the necessary files with the proper setup.
 The Log file, produced by the "warn" command, shows simply:

D [04/Jan/2012:15:59:20 +0500] [Job 4] Unloading...
E [04/Jan/2012:16:07:26 +0500] Missing value for SystemGroup on line 
13.
E [04/Jan/2012:16:07:27 +0500] Unable to bind socket for address 
/cups/var/run/cups/cups.sock:0 - Operation now in progress.
E [04/Jan/2012:16:07:27 +0500] [Job 4] No %%BoundingBox: comment in 
header!
E [04/Jan/2012:16:07:27 +0500] [Job 4] No %%Pages: comment in header!
E [04/Jan/2012:16:07:28 +0500] [Job 4] No pages found!

The file produced by the "debug" command of course provides a plethora
of entries, but it appears CUPS does recognize the printer but just 
insists on the 99.9% usage.  Any idea what I have done wrong, or what 
more information is needed, or what might be the problem?

The above are 'normal'

It yielded only the following:
"SYS1804: The system cannot find the file CUPS."

The <error_log> file however, when I ran <cupsd.exe> previously, after
a bunch of entries reflecting certain ownership and access permsion 
repairs, displayed:

I [04/Jan/2012:15:11:20 +0500] Configured for up to 100 clients.
I [04/Jan/2012:15:11:20 +0500] Allowing up to 100 client connections 
per host.
I [04/Jan/2012:15:11:20 +0500] Using policy "default" as the default!
I [04/Jan/2012:15:11:20 +0500] Full reload is required.
