Names or Labels to USB Hubs

Hi,
Xp Pro(and Vista Ultimate)Intel Dual Core 2 Giga memory.
I have 5 USB Hubs connected (USB 2) - Total 27 USB connection from Hubs and
4 on the Tower. According to the entire publications one computer can be
connected by chain to 127 USB connections. So that +- 20-31 Hubs.
The question how I can give a label or a name to each Hub?
If you connect storage (Disk on key, hard drive, and ctr.) each of the
component has a label on the time that connected.
But sometimes I receive error about USB hub and is a long story to find
which one is wrong.
In the device manager all of them the same name.
I wrote on all of them a special label and the same name on the USB cable.
But when I made the order of the appearance in the Device manager list the
order isn't fix it is changing all the time.
I possible to gave them a label that appearing in the Device Manager or any
another solution to solve the problem?

Thanks

Everything you've ever wanted to know about USB/XP in regards to drive
lettering is there.
Enjoy.

MowGreen,
Thanks, the site is interesting indeed, but there is nothing about the tags
for the USB Hubs that recognized in Device Manager
