lol It means you had something plugged into the usb that was drawing too much power .....
Serious though what did you have plugged into it? Ok I see you had nothing plugged into it.
It may have a bad usb port that is sucking power even with nothing plugged into it

Try Repair Permissions and pop a USB or any USB item and see if it works. Any chance you have had an external drive, hard or optical, connected via USB?

If you don't have any USB devices plugged in at all and are getting that error, then something is wrong with your Logic board..
