My computer with xp pro shut down recoqnizing my usb devices including my printer, scandisks.

My computer has suddenly decided not to recognize my usb devices.  Like my printer, my scandisk, my dvd drive external storage drives.  I tried to repair xp pro but no luck.  I tried reinstalling the drivers with no result.  I have removed the usb port in the hardware device drivers.   When trying to find new devices of the computer will attempt to find an audio device but then cannot find the drivers for it.  Then, it shows that there are other usb devices but lists them as unknown.

  • Satellite Pro A300 can not find USB devices

    Hello forum,.

    We have a customer who bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 with us, but he gets a strange mistake about it.
    It connects to a hub 5port Sandberg USB 2.0 to one of the usb ports, the pc detects the hub, but when it connects a /Memory stick to the hub, nothing happens.
    the hub and the memory stick works on other PCs.

    I hope someone can help.

    Best regards

    John Bork
    DANBIT A/S

    Hello

    What happens if you connect the memory stick directly without this USB hub?
    I also had a USB hub, but these hubs are a little complicated and delicate USB specification allows a certain power and according to the devices that connect, you need to use an active USB hub, that means with external power supply.

    But normally, Satellite Pro A300 should have enough USB ports if it of needed, I would recommend a USB hub with 2 or 3 maximum ports

  • Satellite Pro M70: removal of the USB device causes other peripheral USB does not work

    Withdrawal/use of a USB for a USB device causes devices on USB port to get affected.

    Satellite Pro M70-199 (2 GB RAM)
    Windows XP Pro (SP2) with all updates of Windows installed until end of October 2006.
    This laptop has 3 USB ports.
    An Eicon Diva ISDN USB modem is connected to a USB port.

    When certain devices connected to a different USB port are deleted (even if removed safely with "eject" or "remove device safely", it causes the ISDN modem to file either a double channel (64 k + 64 k) ISDN, or for the ISDM modem to disconnect completely.)

    Cause this include any memory stick USB, MP3 player (ipod and creative zen) and so on.

    Do other devices, such as USB external hard drives & sometimes external DVD USB drives, and sonetimes do not produce this problem.

    Is this a known issue?
    If it is a hardware interrupt problem, how to solve it?
    This problem is related to the modem and the laptop?

    As a note, in addition, intermittent (random) times (cannot reproduce all the time, but it happens once or twice a day) when a USB device is accessible it causes the modem USB ISDN to drop a single channel, even if the lights on the modem still show it as it is connected. In this case and the case above, the only way to get the modem ISDN USB running again is physically disconnect and reconnect.

    The reason why it is a crucial issue is that:
    (1) the modem speed is halved or disconnected
    (2) the ISP continues to full rate for a double load connection even if a channel has been dropped.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    I have Satellite M70-159 and I didn t notice any strange problems with the USB ports. I use a few of them as printer, webcam, USB, memory stick, optical mouse, and external HARD drive. The devices are recognized correctly and I always remove without option delete without danger.

    Now I have Vista pre-installed and there is no problem so far. If I understand you right USB ports work fine but there is problem with USB modem only. Am I wrong?
    Also try to contact the producer of modem support. Is perhaps the question like this known and if all goes well, they have a logical explanation.

  • Why not my Macbook Pro to manage over 3 USB devices?

    To make music, I need 3 usb devices. However, my macbook has only 2 usb ports. I thought that using a hub usb can help, but every time I plug 3 devices (one on macbook and usb hub with two usb devices), one of the devices does not work.

    For example, I have an audio interface, a mouse and a keyboard. When all three are connected, the midi keyboard does not work (is not recognized). When I unplug the mouse, the keyboard is recognized.

    There is no work around for this? It would be a problem with my usb hub?

    The devices have their own supply or is the hub, a powered hub? If it's a powered hub connecting all three devices inside.

  • Media playback volume goes down when any usb device is inserted (REPORT of BUG)

    Whenever I have plug in a USB device (iPhone / USB key) and I media play (video in the browser / media player / music etc.) device that plays the media has the volume automatically turned down to very low volume.

    While I can increase the volume for the single device that is quite annoying... I have disabled the option of mixer to allow other apps to control the sound, but it continues to impose...
    I think it of more of a bug than anything else, but happy to try and proposed the solution

    Eeek just figured it out

    Sound > playback devices > Communications tab
    Change option to reduce the amount other noises of 80% nothing to do...
    I think that Windows thought my iPhone was a communication device, even if I tried to load ;)
  • MacBook Pro shut down unexpectedly

    My Macbook Pro (with the retina, end 2013) stopped unexpectedly. Running OS X Yosemite 10.10.5. It's never happened before, but did it 3 times today already. Not on again unless I connect it to a power source even if it was 60-80% charged each time that its judgment down. It doesn't give me an error when I turn it back on, the only thing substantially different is that it defines my date and clock in one year. I made diagnostics, but it does not found error!

    From what you have said, I think that your computer is just goes to a blank rather than turn off screen. This can be changed by the following text:

    Right-click on an open area of the desktop and select personalize.

    Then at the bottom right of the window, select screen saver.

    Here you can change the time of 5 minutes or uncheck the box marked

    Unfortunately you can not do this. It will take a clean install of Windows.  Automatic is grayed out and you can not change this, you need to reinstall the operating system. I suggest aclean installof Windows.

    You can use your recovery disks. But you will need to remove all and reinstall Windows.
