Hello

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
is not expensive. For a laptop, using a real computer shop (no leeks and glances at a Best Buy
or other stores) or system manufacturer support.

    Hello

    You have restarted to see if they will recognize?

    There could be a hardware problem.

    / Settings (BIOS/CMOS) often F2 as you start then look at the screen - look to see if you have a
    setting to enable Firewire 1394 ports.

    In the Device Manager - click anywhere in the blank white box - Action - search the hardware changes.

    Check with HP, their drivers support and documentation online and ask in the forums of HP.

    Possibly updating the BIOS and chipset of low level drivers might help - if those who are available from HP.

    Hello

    What are the two! brand? You can post a screenshot in the forum...

    If you have a composite USB drive listed in Device Manager... I suggest you uninstall from Device Manager and choose search for the hardware changes...

    Step 2 - connect the USB, reboot and press F12 on dell logo, check if the PC detects the drive cruzer...

    Also check if the LED on the drive flashes once you connect... How about other USB ports?

    SanDisk has a Ko - http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/10/~/cruzer-flash-drive-not-detected-by-windows-pc

    Step 3: Does show in disk management (right click on computer > Manage > disk management)-it appears in disk management, just assign a drive letter. Right-click on the cruzer drive - drive letter--> Add--> choose a drive letter... OK OK... Check if you can see the drive in my computer...

    Step 4: If none of the USB ports work...

    -Install the software of the system Dell- http://downloads.dell.com/utility/DSS_UTIL_WIN_R260746.EXE

    1. install the driver Chipset - http://downloads.dell.com/chipset/R242805.exe

    2. install IMEI - http://downloads.dell.com/chipset/R243176.exe

    Restart the computer... Check if the USB ports are working...

    Step 5: update the BIOS [remove all devices connected to the laptop, make sure that your battery is more than 10%, plug the AC adapter and do not remove the power source until the complete procedure]

    Do not interrupt the process otherwise it would brick your system...

    Hello

    Sounds like his "stuck" in the current state. Try this: go to control panel, select Device Manager. When this window opens, navigate to the tab for your removable drive (try the category of portable devices), and when you find, right-click on the drive and select turn off first, confirm the deactivation, then right-click again and select uninstall, confirming again. When the device has been turned off and deleted, restart your computer with the drive connected to the USB port in what he normally resides. It recognizes the drive now?

    Post your results here and let me know how you fare.

  • Satellite A500 - 14L cannot recognize two USB ports

    Hello

    I bought a Satellite A500 - 14L three months ago, I've just updated the bios with this link , but after two USB ports (on the left side of the computer) do not work.

    I try to download the new driver for them, but without success.
    Do anyone now how can I solve this problem?

    Thank you and sorry for the English, I'm French...

    Hello

    What operating system do you use?
    Is - this Windows 7?

    How about USB port State in the Device Manager?
    Is there visible yellow exclamation points?

    In your case I would recommend to check if all the necessary drivers have been installed.
    For example the Chipset Utility must be installed. It is very important.
    There is also the USB Sleep and Charge utility USB Sleep and Charge utility. This utility is able to activate or disable the USB Sleep function and fresh. It shows the positions of the USB ports supporting USB Sleep and Charge function and shows the remaining capacity of the battery.

    Please check these applications!

  • HP Officejet 8500 A909g is not recognized by my computer when plugged into the usb port

    I received an email from HP recommend I install new software for my Officejet Pro 8500.  I downloaded the software and installed.  The printer was working, but it would not scan. I got an error message telling me to re install the software because the analysis part has not been installed. I have downlaoded software again and installed it. During installation, the mode had to unplug the printer, so I did. (It is connected using the usb cable directly to the back of the computer).  When installation instructions came at a certain time, it told me to plug the printer. I did, but it was not recognized.  I checked the box to install all the software and install the printer later.  Now is back, and the printer is still not recognized by the computer.  Help, please.

    Have you tried a new USB cable or a USB port on the computer?

  • My 5520 connects to internet via its usb port

    My University didn't allow wireless printers. My thought was to use the photosmart 5520 in wireless mode, connect to the internet via my dorm room ethernet connection using the usb port of 5520's with a usb adapter to ethernet. I'll just use eprint from my ipad to print.  will this work?

    No,

    Printing from iOS is only supported via a (wired or wireless) network connection.

    You can use Direct wireless for that matter (where the printer behaves like a router) to print from iOS on a LAN:

  • HP Envy m7-n109dx: after loading Windows 7 on a new drive on a HP Envy m7-n109dx it will not recognize the usb ports

    not sure that this area is for.

    Hello:

    I'm not sure what you mean in regard to this area, but this place is to explain in more detail the nature of your question.

    I see that HP did not include the USB3 drivers on your laptop support page, so the most likely reason that do not have USB3 ports is because you need to install the driver for the USB3.

    Use the one directly from Intel.  Download, unzip and run the setup.exe file.
