First of all, is this a MIDI controller or some kind of audio interface? It seems your driver is screwed up, which may or may not be Cubase’s fault. To determine this, you would need to try it in another DAW. Meanwhile, you can go through that same process, only this time using the ASIO4ALL driver, which you can find here: www.asio4all.com

This would only be to keep you working until you can sort out your issues with the other driver. If your driver does not work in another host application, then you’ll of course want to get in touch with the manufacturer.
