Internal card reader & USB ports stop working in Windows 7 64 bit - HELP

This seems to be VERY popular problem between Vista and 7 users. I can't find the right difficulty any where. I have a HP Pavilion of D5200T running Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit. (I can provide more specific if necessary specifications). I read a few other posts in this forum with exactly the same problem as me, I tried the suggested fixes - most of them anyway - and my problem persists.

This is the story of the kind: bought PC Cognac nine in June 09. It came with Vista Home premium 64-bit. On the front panel, I have the HP 15 in 1 reader cards and below that another panel with micro/headphones, 2 USB ports and 1 port Firwire catches. They all worked great worked great, no problem at all. I bought Windows 7 and improved in October 09. These two USB ports and card reader have been in place since then. I turn on the computer or restart works and they. Slide into a car SD, CF, whatever it is. Little green light turns on, windows automatically opens on the screen indicating the contents of the card.

The card reader is no longer everything first. It may be 15 minutes later, perhaps hours. I slip on a map and still get the little green light but nothing on the screen. As if no card has been inserted. 2 USB ports will do the same thing, just much less frequently. I step a USB item and I have an error message saying: is not recognized or not installed properly. If I restart - they are all back to work very well.

So... this problem only started after the Windows 7 installed, then it is clear to me is where the problem lies. When card readers or USB is in their State of non-working, I'll go to Device Manager and see that they are always listed, and there is no indicator of errors.

This is what I remember by train so far, without success. I uninstalled devices from the Device Manager, driver too. I tried unplugging them from the card, restart, reconnected, reinstall. I tried different plugs on the motherboard. I can't find the latest drivers. The courses are MS 21/06/06 6.1.7600.16385. I think I tried all utilities integrated in Win7 to try and diagnose, and none of them produced no results. I tried to disable the sleep function. I even reached out to HP support, and the best they have resulted so far is that the card reader is bad. They are sending me a new, but I do not think that this problem will be solved.

As I said, I see this problem or similar to many, many forums but I have rarely seen a happy ending where it was fixed. Someone at - it the key? Help, please.

  • All USB ports stopped working Windows 7

    Windows 7 Pro. All USB ports stopped working.  When I plug a usb card, windows makes the sound as it connects and the card gets power (light).  I see the map appear in disk drives in Device Manager.  The player does not display in windows Explorer or disk management.  In Device Manager, it has an exclamation point and says that the device cannot start.

    Strangely, I have a USB keyboard and mouse and they work very well.

    It's just the USB drives and chips and SD cards that are not displayed.

    I have:

    Reinstalled the drivers USB MB

    Flashed the BIOS with the latest version

    Tried to install the older USB drivers

    Tried to let windows find the driver.

    Still does not

    None of this has helped.  I ended up formatting the HD and reinstall windows from dvd.

    This revealed that my USB multicard reader was bad.  When I unplugged the problem disappeared.

  • USB ports stopped working unexpectedly

    Hi, I am currently on "Toshiba Satellite C655"run"Windows 7 Home Premium". It's a laptop of 2009 model (2 GB). Last night (24/02/14) my USB Ports stopped working, they have been and continue to read anything every time I have to plug my devices. I usually only connect a cooling block and a USB mouse to the computer. They worked perfectly until I disconnected the. When I reconnect them, they work momentarily, and then I hear the beep sounds when you eject a device. I tried to connect several flashdrives, a printer, and one I tried the following hotfixes:

    Note: The order of numbering has nothing to do with the order, I tried to apply each patch unless specified elsewhere. This computer had Windows 7 Home Premium REINSTALLED at some point. Just for your information. This message was made when there are others with the same problem is due to the fact that no solution not specified by Microsoft Technical Support or the Microsoft community were effective.

    1) System Restore to the last known point, where they worked (and still). (Point restoration @ 15/02/24)

    2) Windows Update

    3) turn off the computer, disconnect the battery and the power supply and holding 'On' button for 10seconds.

    (Note: whenever I turn on the computer now they work only for a moment, usually from 60 to 180 seconds.)

    (4) Start > research ' Device Manager '> "De Bus USB controllers" Expand and turn off and restart the computer. They are re - activate automatically but my problem persists.

    (5) download and run "Microsoft FixIt.WinUSB... ", on the 1st, I had a problem with devices not updated. But I actually watch updates by using Windows Update and ""searching for hardware changes "" on USB Bus controllers "." I then did a 'System Restore' and now Microsoft FixIt found no problem but the USB Ports don't always work.

    (6) will ' services.msc"and change the Startup Type of Manual to Automatic for Windows install and restart Windows."

    7) regedit

    8) sfc/scannow

    I am really lost with this problem now. My laptop works and worked perfectly fine until this problem occurred. I have fixed minor problems with computers before, but this is a bad joke for me now. If someone could please help me with this problem I would appreciate it a lot. Thank you very much.

    Thank you for your help, but I discovered something funny on my computer. My cooling package (product name: Laptop Cooling Pad NSB;) HYCF-6181-2 model number) is to disable my USB ports when I plug. If I leave it unplugged and restart my computer, my USB mouse is still working on a port. Also tried using my USB and other devices. The problem is my block of cooling that strangely disables my USB ports, whenever I plug. Thank you very much for your quick response, fortunately the answer might help me in the future. For now, I have solved my problem.

  • SQosmio G50 - 10 H - one of the usb ports stopped working

    Hello forum,.

    I have a BOUNCING problem with usb ports on my qosmio g50-10 h.
    There are two ports on the right side of the machine and I have 2 self-powered 7 centers of port (usb 2) attached to these.

    Every now and then to stop it from ports and of course all the parts a unregcognised, not found.
    I get error messages saying unregognised device or usb device stopped working or windows stopped device etc.

    Unplug the hub and repluging it ususally actually come back to life.

    any ideas?

    Stafford

    Hello

    Have you tried to connect devices directly to the USB port?
    Try this and see if the USB device is disconnected, as you mentioned that using the external USB hub.

    Generally speaking, it is difficult to say what might cause this
    You could try updating the chipset driver.
    Of course, you should also check the USB port settings, and power management options for economy.

    In device manager-> USB root & hub-> properties you could disable for unique energy saving USB ports.
    This also on Win 7 power management.

    Check the configuration/settings (BIOS/CMOS) often F2 when you start - make sure that USB is enabled.

    If a PC and if necessary the embedded USB can be disabled and a USB card can be used only

  • all 3 USB ports stopped working - MX30

    As a result, none of the 3 USB ports on my old MX30 work of 2 months. I unchecked the option in the hardware Manager of devices for energy saving, nothing helps. First of all, only the mouse stopped and I thought the mouse was to blame, but all of a sudden the machine does not recognize the USB memory key more.
    Any advice would be very welcome, because I can't work!

  • Satellite L850 - USB Port stopped working

    Hello guys,.

    first sorry for my bad English, im from Germany.

    My new clearly L850 satellite has had some problems with sound-Port USB.
    I think it's the Usb3.0 Port on the left.
    While I'm workin with an external keyboard, the USB Port has stopped working and cannot identify the keyboard.
    All other devices that I put there, are out of order, but when I put an external hard Powerdevice with separate data for laptop, that he is there something ist connectet, but can't identify it.

    I have try all troubleshooting close it, like install new drivers, disable ports and restart and any kind of it.

    So maybe you have another tip for me?
    Or do I have to bring my laptop to the store for warranty?
    A Windows 8 64 bit on it, maybe it will help.

    Best regards, neothic

    Have you tried reinstalling the driver USB 3.0? Please try and check the functionality. If this will not help I recommend you do the ultimate test: back up all your data and reinstall Win8 using recovery media. Test it with clean OS preinstalled and factory settings.

    In the worst cases, you should contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.

  • Desktop Dell Optiplex 390 computer. Each USB Port stopped working

    Hello!

    I'm at my wits end. Turned on my Optiplex 390 a few days ago and found that my keybord or my mouse was working. I tried all the usb ports on the front and back. When I plug inn the keybord the numlock, capslock and scroll lock lights upp for half a second, but it was not detected.

    I can't get into the bios. as my keyboard is not detected at all. start or windows or linux or back or Freedos.

    My Bios is A01. Is trying to update, but you know no keyboard, I tried to reset the bios by the rider and take out the battery for a few hours. to no awail.

    Can anyone think of what the problem might be? doubt his material because none of the usb ports work and that they should be on different controllers.

    Manual says that the 390 office has an intrusion switch. See the manual for the location of the connection on the motherboard and the trace of wire to the switch.

    Blue button / stop more amber LEDs 1,2,3,4 is not an error code documented.

    Are you sure that you have disabled the BIOS as speed tells you how?

    You will have to strip to bare essentials, but more like the failure of the motherboard.
