Usb Device Not Recognized
Replies: 4 | Post Date: 2 months ago | User: Indrojit | Forums: answers.yahoo.comAnswer:- are you getting a usb device not recognized error whenever you plug in a usb mouse, keyboard, or other usb device? I love usb and have 5 ports on my computer so that i can connect my mouse, keyboard, camera, phone, and printer to it all at once!
However, last weekend, my computer stopped recognizing my usb devices! The strange thing about it was that the usb ports were not bad because all of my devices were still getting power to them. I could still charge my cell phone without a problem!
So i started with the normal fixing methods, including uninstalling the drivers for my devices and reinstalling them. That didn't work! Next i tried system restore thinking that maybe i had installed something and it caused a conflict with the usb system drivers. That didn't work!
I read online that in order to fix this problem i should go to device manager and uninstall all of the devices under usb controllers. Restarted the computer, reinstalled the usb drivers, but the problem still did not go away!
You may also see in device manager that the device shows up as an unknown device. So how did i finally fix the problem? Well, apparently its a super simple solution! No need to edit the registry, uninstall drivers, or anything of that sort. Simply unplug your computer from the power supply. Yes that's it! Note that this does not mean just turning off your computer because modern computers don't really turn off when you press the power button as the motherboard still gets power. First to explain, the motherboard is where all of hardware of the computer is connected to, including the usb ports. Sometimes the motherboard needs to be rebooted also because something can go wrong, i.e. All your usb ports suddenly stop working. The small microprocessor on the motherboard will reload the drivers and your usb ports should be back to recognizing all devices!
So first turn off your computer using shut down or pressing the power button and then unplug it from the wall outlet. Let it sit for about a minute and then plug it back in. Hope this helps someone fix that pesky usb device not recognized windows error!

Usb Device Not Recognized On Windows Xp
I have been using my usb flash drive ok for a long time. But lately, each time i want to use it i suffer. It always shows the message "usb device not recognized", sometimes it works, but after plugging and unplugging it for 100 times, this happens on my winxp machine, but it works ok on the 2000 computer. Any idea why this is happening?

And it still didnt work. My laptop is a toshiba satellite a200/a205.

Usb Device Not Recognized After Moved Pc Into A New Case
Ok when i moved my pc into a new case i am getting usb device not recognized now but the mouse work's fine in usb just nothing else i use. The joystick i trying to get working again is a saitek st50, it don't come with a disk and all i did before was just put it in and the pc found the driver's for me. I looked all over the net and did try a few things already:-
- I got sp2 and updated all the way
- Turn off pc and pull the plug out and leave it for afew min
- Hold in the power button for like 30 sec
- Turn the power saving thing off in the device manager on all usbs
- Uinstalled all usb's and restalled them
And still nothing, like i said the mouse works fine in all the usb ports just not the joystick or my bluetooth device.

Usb Device Not Recognized On Dell Inspiron 1520
I have a targus wireless mouse for my laptop. I plug in the little dongle and the mouse works. I have used it for months no with no problem. Now all a sudden, when i plug in the dongle it tells me "usb device not recognized" the lights on the dongle flash when i use the mouse, so it gets the signal. I have searched on the web and have tried many things including deleting the entries under the usb on my registry and turning off my computer for a long time. My laptop is a dell inspiron 1520.

Usb Flash Crashes With Device Not Recognized Error
My trusty 8gb trancend pico keychain usb drive died today as i was backing it up, oh the irony. I didn't loose anything i don't have stashed in other places, but it i am wondering if i can try and grab whatever is there and not corrupt with some software? Most of the free-ware and trial stuff i have tried doesn't work unless the drive is assigned a drive letter, but it's not recognized by either of my systems now, is this a wasted effort or is there something free that will mount it and get what is readable?

Rollei D330 Camera - Message: Usb Device Not Recognized
I have my digital camera (rollei d330) which has to be connected to the computer by usb to copy the pictures on the hard drive. I didn't have to install anything - and it always worked. But suddenly it does not anymore! Usually when i connected camera and computer, a wizard popped up, but now there appears a message "usb device not recognized" in the system tray. I already installed service pack 1, but it still doesn't work. The camera doesn't cause any problems with other computers tho! Does anyone have a clue what to try? I got windows xp by the way.

Sandisk Cruzer Titanium Flash Drive - Usb Device Not Recognized
Bought a sandisk cruzer titanium flash drive which worked fine for 6 weeks. Now when i plug it into the usb 2. 0 port on the front of my machine windows xp responds "usb device not recognized. " The drive is not present in my computer or disk management but shows up as an "unknown device" in device manager. The drive does work, however, on another computer at work. The same problem also has started with an ipod.

Usb 2.0 Card Reader Is Recognized As Usb 1.1
I can't figure out why when i plug in a usb 2. 0 card reader, no matter what, it is recognized as usb 1. 1. This happens with my card reader which i just bought, but i figured it was just because it was a cheap card reader. Well i tried using my dad's which he has no problems running at usb 2. 0 and it is still recognized as 1. 1 on my laptop. All other devices that i hook up to the laptop run at usb 2. 0 just fine-even if i hook my d70 directly to the pc via usb it is 2. 0. My only guess as to why this will not work is because i am running vista x64. (Dell does not offer 64 bit oss, so i had purchased 64 bit separately and installed that myself).

Sandisk Usb Key Not Being Recognized By Ps3
Whenever i put my usb key in the ps3 to transfer files off it, the ps3 doesn't recognize it. When i first got my ps3 it would work fine and i copied themes, pictures, movies, etc off it with no troubles. But recently i went to copy some of my saved games onto it to take to my friend's house and it's not showing up at all. The usb drive has a light on it (as most do) to indicate when it's plugged in and what not. However, the light isn't turning on at all, and if i search for media servers, it only turns on/off sporadically until an error comes up saying that nothing is detected. The drive works fine when plugged into my pc, so it's not defective or anything, and it used to be detected a few weeks ago, so i'm assuming it's formatted correctly.

Usb Mass Storage Devices Not Recognized By Windows
So lately i have been having a problem with using usb mass storage devices. The problem that i am having is well they don't show up, i plug them in and all i get is device is not recognized by windows, i have tried a few things like reboots removing devices that are on the controller, and still get nothing, all other devices that i have work just fine, i want to say its probably just a driver issue, but not exactly sure.

Usb External Hard Drive Not Fully Recognized By Xp
I have a hdd with an ide/usb converter to be used as an external usb hdd. It was working fine the couple of times i used it, but apparently something happened and now it is not fully recognized by xp. When i turn the hdd on, xp tells me new hardware found, then says it is a disc unit, then nothing happens. My pc does not show the disc, neither the explorer does it. I can not open device manager unless i turn the hdd off. I have un-installed/installed all usb controllers. Same problem. The above happens with my desktop. There is no problem using this usb external hdd in my notebook. Any idea what the problem is? How to solve it?

Keyboard / Mouse Not Recognized After Driver Upgrade For Usb Game Controller
I had a mobo upgrade 2 months ago. I run windows xp. I installed vista transormation pack 2 weeks ago. Everything was running fine untill i decided to upgrade the driver for my usb connected game controller. After restart, windows booted fine but can't used keyboard or mouse. Both were connected through ps2 ports. Tried disconnecting them and connecting them again, power down and few other things but no success. I then also tried using usb connected mouse and it does not work. I tried repairing windows installation with xp cd but i can not select i agree tab upon repair reboot (basically cant still use keyboard and mouse), leaving me with no choice but to make fresh install.

Will A Computer Boot From A Usb / Usb 2.0 Device?
Will a computer boot from a usb/usb 2. 0 device? Ex. Cd-rom, how does that detect in the bios? What bios settings must be made to enable that. The reason i ask is i was thinking about building a comp with no internal optical drives. I wanted to hide the box out of site while the *-rom and *-rw drive are easily accessible on my desk top.

How Can Your Non Usb Or Ps/2 Device Be Usb Compatible ?
How can this device exist, logically? This device converts non-usb (ps/2) devices (mice or keyboards) into usb devices. Instead of having to use your mouse or keyboard via ps/2, with this device you can use them via usb. The auction mentions how the device you are converting, which obviously needs to be ps/2 to start, must be usb compatible. So, how can your non-usb, or ps/2, device be usb compatible? This simply does not make sense to me. I tried this converter with a few of my ps/2 mice and keyboards and it did not work. I could not use my devices as usb while they were connected to this converter. Surely the manufacturers of certain mice and keyboards did not design their devices as ps/2 devices and allow them to work as usb devices just incase someone else created and sold a device that converts ps/2 devices into usb devices. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could clarify this for me, because from the looks of it, the idea of converting ps/2 to usb is stupid if your ps/2 device must somehow be usb compatible.

Xp Usb Device Conflicts
A friend has an 2006 dell pc. She is having some problems with the usb ports. When she plugs in her flash key the device is not recocnized and does not show up in my computer. We have completed several virus scans etc and all drives are clean. We have also tested the flash key in another pc and works perfectly. To isolate the problem, we have tried several other usb devices and some are recognized but most are not. However, if i plug out all other usb devices, and then insert the key, it is recocnized. I think the problem relates to drive letter assignment for new usb devices. I have checked in administrate tools -> computer management -> disk management and the key is not listed as a drive. There are several drives listed a to k. When a mobile phone is plugged it registers on drive j. The flash key (with all other devices plugged out) also registers on drive j. I think the resolution is to force some other device to register on another drive letter but not sure which one to change or to force the key to register on drive l. If i delete the universal serial bus contollers in device manager, will they reinstall on reboot. There appears to be no xp installation disks. The pc also seems to be hanging periodically, so i think there may be some underlying os corruption although this does not appear to be too significant at this time.

Usb Device And Ports Not Get Anything
The device manager says i have 2 usb ports (which i do have) but when i plug a device into the usb ports neither device or the usb sez anything. And when i plug in a mp3 player the player does not get anything. I have checked the irq settings and the device manager conflicts but everything seems to be in perfect order. Does this have to do anything with jumpers or dip switches? My motherboard was out of order for 6 months. Then i took it to a service man who fixed it. After the fixing the usb broke up.computer specifications:
Motherboard: abit bl7/bw7
Ram: 256mbsd
Hdd: 40gb
Agp: 128mb nvidia geforce4 mx 4000
Soundcard: sb live! 5. 1

Connecting Device Via Usb But Nothing Comes Up
Connecting a device via usb, but nothing comes up on desktop manager. I'm trying to access my media card on my blackberry storm 2. My os is windows 7 and i used the drivers that came on the disk and haven't found anything any more current. When i plug the usb in, i get a chime and my phone starts charging. Also, under device manager >> usb controllers, blackberry smartphone is listed. Under the properties, it says the device is working properly. But when i click on my computer, there's nothing there. How can i access the videos stored in my phone? It seems like everything is working as it's supposed to this seems excessively complicated, i hope it's not just me making a stupid mistake.

Usb Switch Device Between Mac And Pc
I have a pc and a mac. I am getting a dell 20 inch monitor (can't wait) which has suport for 2 inputs. I am using this awful kvm switcher which isn't fully compatable with my mac. I want to find some usb device that can switch back and forth between the mac and the pc, but is seperate from the monitor because i don't need a switcher for that anymore. Any ideas or sugestions?

I have a pc and a mac. I am getting a dell 20 inch monitor (can't wait) which has suport for 2 inputs. I am using this awful kvm switcher which isn't fully compatable with my mac. I want to find some usb device that can switch back and forth between the mac and the pc, but is seperate from the monitor because i don't need a switcher for that anymore. Any ideas or sugestions?

Pc Freezes Whenever You Plug Any Usb Device In
I have just got a old pc going for a friend (pentium 3). Everything seems to be working fine and the running speed is pretty good for a old machine although when i plug a usb device in (ie a barrel style mp3 player or simular) the pc just freezes and has to be restarted. Is this a motherboard related driver issue?

Moving Device To Different Usb Port
Is anyone else having this problem? I have 6 usb 2. 0 ports and a 4x hub plugged into one of them, and if move any device from one usb port to another, windows thinks i'm plugging in a new device, and needs to go through the whole process of installing both the drivers and the software (in correct order yada yada) each time this is done. I have 4 cables plugged into the 4 main usb ports, and everytime i unplug them all to open the case, i never know which ones went in which one so i whack them all back in, boot up, and have to go through settings them all up again!

Device Manager Does Not List Any Usb Ports
I have an ibm pc running windows 2000 professional. The computer has 4 usb ports: 2 in the back (along with a parallel port) and 2 in the front behind a small pop-open panel. The device manager does not list any usb ports (it lists 2 ports: a communications port {com1} and a printer port {lpt1}). I have been trying to attach a brother mfc8500 printer/fax/scanner to the computer using a 10' a-b usb cable. For whatever reason, the computer does not recognize the usb ports and does not direct the brother software installation program to the usb driver installation screen like it is supposed to. I am assuming the problem is with the computer: it does not seem to recognize the ports. What do i do?

Could A Usb Device Drain Cmos Battery ?
I just got home from work, and when my computer booted up, everything was back to default, and now it will no longer save. This obviously sounds like a dead battery to me, however they ususally don't just drain that fast. One thing that i did that i don't normally do is i left my hd-usb anttena plugged into the usb port. There was absolutely no power going to the psu when i turned the machine off last nite as usual. So, can it drain the battery?

Usb Device Cause Computer To Freeze Or Not To Boot
I have recently been having issues left and right with my computer freezing or not given booting. I got it mainly fixed but i found out something strange. It would appear when i had my card reader connected and my wireless usb adapter connected (with the usb cord connected) the computer would either freeze while loading the os or not even boot at all. When the card reader was connected i had a 2gb sd card in it and for some reason the card wasn't being detected at all and vista wasn't even detecting the card reader till after maybe 5min. After plugging it in. Also, the other strange thing is when i had my usb wireless adapter plugged in with the usb cord the computer wouldn't even boot or it would freeze like above. When i finally just connected the wireless adapter by itself windows loaded fine with no freeze/lock ups (and yes, i don't have the card reader connected right now). Idk but i'd hate to say this but would it be a psu issue? I was playing l4d and killing floor fine last night with my xfx 4850 oc'ed. What is going on here? Side note: has the latest ati drivers been causing anybody any issues lately? Like lock ups or anything? At first though i thought it was the oc'ing from catalyst causing the issue but i guess it wasn't.
