  • USB mass storage driver update

    I have three USB keys from various manufacturers, none of which can be mounted by Windows 7.  When I Plug one in, Device Manager it shows under "Other devices" with the yellow exclamation point.  I right-click, select Properties, the error message "Code 28", click on "Update Driver", and after some research, I get this error:

    Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error trying to install it.

    The system cannot find the specified file.

    I also three are "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" that I can't fix it for the same reasons, but I am happy to have solved the problem of USB.

    I watched all my points of system restore to see if all drivers could be affected by the restoration, but saw nothing.

    All forums 'remedy', I found say "get the driver from the manufacturer", but all the manufacturers say "Microsoft Update".  Does anyone have a suggestion?

  • USB Mass Storage Device problem

    I have the HP Pavilion Elite E9120f desktop computer. Whenever I start the computer, it shows that I have USB mass storage drives, G, H, I and J. However, there is no attached USB mass storage device. No one knows why this happens? I just usually click on the removal of the safety equipment and remove false devices. I get the message "this device can now be deleted without the computer problem. This machine runs Vista and has a 1 terabyte of hard drive. Thank you

    Bart, have you checked in 'My Computer' when this happens to see if the drives are there?  Almost looks like you have a virtual drive on your computer program.  Check also in start/startup to see if he is there that nothing listed that could cause this to happen.  Four readers Ghost is really strange.

    Are you sure that the USB is not bad? Also have you tried on some other computer USB3 ports to see if those who can see the drive? Looks like your USB is not USB3 if it can read the disk HARD USB3 but not the USB3 Flash in question. Also make sure that your laptop ports are USB3 ports? In the contrary case, we owe this: to check if the ports are USB3...

  • "This USB mass storage device can transfer information faster if you connect it to a USB 3.0 port Superspeed ' when the device is already connected to a USB 3.0 port.

    I just bought and installed a USB 3.0 card. It is the Startech PEXUSB3S2 PCIe card. I installed the card in a PCIe 2.0 X 1 slot. The manual says it's exactly the slot, that it supports.

    The Manager device displays NEC Electronics USB 3.0 Host Controller and NEC Electronics USB 3.0 Root Hub are installed and are working correctly. I have a Thermaltake BLACX5G 5 G USB 3.0 hard drive caddy. The transfer rate is only 35 MB/s using the HDTune benchmark. It is a USB 2.0 speed.

    When the player is turned on, windows displays the message "this USB mass storage device can transfer information faster if you connect it to a Super speed USB 3.0 port»

    For some reason, the system doesn't see the caddy to drive USB 3.0 as being plugged into a USB 3.0 port, when it actually is.

    I remember having this same problem with Windows XP, when I bought a USB 2.0 card. The only thing that fixed it at the time was upgraded to XP SP2.

    This should not be a problem because I know that Windows 7 pro 64-bit supports USB 3.0.

    My motherboard is an ASUS P5QL-EM support an Intel Core 2 Quad and 4 GB of DDR2 memory. According to the manual owner the PCIe x 1 slots support architecture 1.0 and 2.0.

    Edit: I just tested the external hard drive and expansion card USB 3.0 on my motherboard Gigabyte of friends running Windows XP. Everything worked perfectly, no problems at all.

    Here, there is a problem with Windows 7 or the motherboard. Still unresolved, currently installs a floppy drive so I can update the firmware of my motherboard.

    I checked the implementation of the card several times, removed and installed in another motherboard to test, then removed and reinstalled again in my motherboard ASUS check several times for a fit course.  It still does not work. I have just completed update the firmware of the motherboard with the latest version, and I also did a new install of Windows 7, install the drivers USB 3.0 immediately after installing Windows over. None of this solves the problem.

    I'm running out of ideas on how to fix this without doing something drastic as a replacement for my motherboard. I don't want the speed of USB 3.0, but I don't think I'm ready for an another two or three hundred dollars to get it.

    I've been all over the ' net trying to find a solution and read tons about USB USB 3.0 specifically and in general. I can find no reason why the drivers would install and report that they are working correctly, but fail to connect to 3.0 speeds. I think that this would generate a certain type of error instead of such a strange symptom.

    EDIT:

    Here go us. I knew that is was a bad idea to buy one main (ASUS P5QL-EM) card that had to be overclocked to 1066 MHz for DRAM memory. I did all this work, and every time I reset my BIOS or updated it would always be the frequency DRAM back to where it should be (1066). After a reset of the computer was the starter and I just let it start instead of setting the DRAM frequency and, suddenly, USB 3.0 card worked perfectly. I confirmed this by setting the frequency to 1066 and looking at the USB 3.0 card fail again. I guess it must have something to do with the clock being sent to the PCIe bus.

    In any case, the USB 3.0 card works perfectly and gives me a transfer rate HD Tune to 99 MB/s on a drive from WD SATA 7200 RPM and 86.1 Mbps on a Samsung drive hard 5400 RPM / MIN 3,5 "SATA. These are the same reference points I get when these drives are connected to my internal SATA connectors. I'd say USB 3.o works perfectly now and maxing out the hard drives performance.

    Thanks for any help.

    The external storage device will appear only as usb mass storage device.

    You can use the external device for general storage purposes but the operating system should be stored in the internal hard disk only.
