It looks like a USB device not playing nicely or perhaps she has older
USB host controllers that are allergic to the ehci_hcd module. I'd
suggest unplugging all your use devices until after you are booted..
then open a terminal and run:

tail -f /var/log/messages

then start plugging USB devices back in one at a time until you find
the offending device.. if the device is a USB 2.0 device you may be
able to get it to work by openinf a terminal and using the command:

sudo rmmod ehci_hcd

If that get the device to work then the problem may be with the USB
host controller on the motherboard. I have seen this behaviour
before .. usually with older VIA based Host controllers.

Hope this helps
