Portege M400: Not recognized USB Ports

Hi all

Due to some problems with the USB ports (they have recognized that some devices), I decided to delete their entries in the management of devices, Universal Serial Bus. I did it because even the Toshiba site offers, as the next restart should result in automatic recognition of the USB ports.
Unfortunately, it didn't in my case. My M400 asked me the CD with the drivers (?) and four yellow dots to mark appeared as unknown devices in the list of devices.
Then I tried to install the latest update of the chipset utility, but this does not solve the problem.

What could I do? Is there anything other missing?
Thanks in advance for your attention.

Hmmmm... This very strange art. All that you have done is just. When you write problems with the USB ports can you please tell us what was happen exactly?
I just hope there is no hardware problem.

What do you think about recovery of laptop? I know, this is a more radical method, but if the problem persists after you retrieve laptop there may be serious hardware problem.

  • Nighthawk R8500, USB 3.0 Flash drive not recognized USB 3.0 Port, Port of only 2.0

    My Nighthawk R8500 router with the latest firmware, V1.0.2.54_1.0.56, does not recognize my SanDisk Ultra Fit 128 GB USB 3.0 Flash drive when it is connected to the router USB 3.0 Port. The Ultra Fit is formatted in FAT32 and works fine when plugged into USB Port 2.0 router or my laptop.

    At first, I thought maybe USB 3.0 Port on my router wasn't working at all, but it recognizes my SanDisk 16 GB Cruzer USB 2.0 Flash Drive that is also formatted FAT 32. Unfortunately both my laptop have USB 2.0 Ports, so I don't know if the problem is with the router or the Ultra Fit Flash Drive. Everyone knows about this problem of their Flash 3.0 player is not recognized in USB 3.0 Port their router, especially with a SanDisk Ultra Fit? This problem can be resolved through firmware? I'd really like to take full advantage of the speed of USB 3.0 as I like to share files through my router via ReadyShare and ReadyCloud.

  • Device not recognized USB error message - all USB ports.

    Apologies if all this seems a bit simple, but I'm not an expert, so bear with me.

    I have a laptop Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718.

    My USB ports have stopped working in 2-3 weeks.  I get the message "USB device not recognized.  One of the devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize... »

    I don't seem to get any yellow exclamation point in device, all my drivers in Device Manager and software are up to date and Windows Update is running.

    My mobile phone and ipod always charge when I plug them in and out of this problem, everything works fine.

    In addition to the usual updates of Windows, only two other things have occurred since last, they worked.  One was that I renewed my subscription to Norton Antivirus, the other was that my laptop battery ran right out while he was in mode 'sleep' as I did not know that I had not plugged to the socket properly.

    So far, I went through some process as suggested by various items and/or help & support on Microsoft.com.  They include:

    * (From multiple locations) system restore has failed.
    * Diagnostic software Ran Fujitsu Siemens, which says that my computer is fine.
    * Run the virus scan who come clean.
    * Tries to connect via a USB hub.
    * Deletied the USB controllers in Device Manager to re - install.
    * Changing the settings of ForceHcResetOnResume 3-to-1
    * Change AdditionalCriticalWorkerThreads from 0 to 2

    (The last two I've changed back again after neither worked).

    My opinion of beginner, it's that looks like it will create new registry details for each device when valid seem to exist already is not thankful.  Although given my lack of technical knowledge, this could well be stating the obvious.

    So, now, I drew a blank.  Anyone got any ideas?  Got 9 months left a 3-year warranty, I don't want to go through the hassle if it can be avoided without too much trouble.

    Thanks in advance!

  • Satellite M30x not recognizing not all USB ports

    My Satellite M30x has recently ceased to recognize all USB devices are connected that he, being a huge super biff computer I can only assume all my USB ports are totally exhausted.

    If anyone has any other theories id be more than happy to hear... Thanks :)

    Hello

    Something similar happened on my laptop. The laptop has stopped to recognize the external device (USB HDD). Someone told me that it happened because I used the safely remove. Usually, if you want to for example disconnect the USB HDD or USB key, you must use the remove before disconnecting the device from the laptop.
    I just deleted all ports USB device and Manager after restarting the laptop operating system recognized all the USB ports again. Further, I have connected my external HARD drive, and it worked!

    I put t know which external USB devices you use, but sometimes the machines cannot be allowed because the ports USB don t provide enough power.
    In this case, you can disable the mode without power failure in the USB hub properties in Device Manager.

    Good luck

  • Portege R700-17Z bios not recognizing USB devices

    Hello

    I'm after some advice on a problem I'm having with my R700, I can't get the laptop to recognize USB hard drives start-up stage. I am trying to use Acronis to create an image that I have 40 of these laptops.

Legacy USB emulation is enabled.

    Am I missing something?

  • Equium A60 - Generic not recognized USB Hub

    Equium A60, XP Home Edition SP3.

    My Tevion USB 2.0 combo card reader is reported as being a USB device fails, is not recognized and implemented in the device as an unknown device manager.

    Here's the riddle:
    When I plug it into the same old PC under XP Pro SP3, it is recognized and works.
    When I plug it into a new PC running Vista Home Premium, it is recognized and works

    And finally, and especially:
    When I plug a USB 1 Hub 4 ports on the A60 Equium and then plug the Tevion USB2.0 card reader this Tevion card is recognized and works. There are a lot of bleating like a lost sheep on the run faster if connected to a USB 2 port, but if I plug it directly into the port from Toshiba it does not at all.

    Any ideas to solve this problem or similar experiences?

    Is the gap of 4-port hub powered by the USB port of your satellite or is it a KVM?

    If self-powered it s then it s obviously needs a lot of power combo card reader which can be provided by all of your computers, but not the satellite.

  • C510a: C510a software will not install on the new Dell laptop - can not find USB ports

    I just bought a new laptop Dell 7710, running Windows 7.  When I try to install the driver software for my printer HP C510a, Setup performs a check of the system and tells me that I don't have a USB port, and the option that provides the installation routine is to interrupt the installation.  I have 4 ports USB 3.0, which work very well with any other USB device that I've plugged into them.  I downloaded the latest version of the software C510a driver and still have the same problem.  I really same useless USB port on the printer because I connect via my WiFi network.  I run HP diagnostics in order to try to identify the problem and that they can find the printer and identify it on the WiFi network, and they also recognized as USB ports.   But the software C510a stilll don't have USB ports and refuses to load.

    How can I get HP to fix their software driver for a product that is not common, but always prints as well as ever?  It is also mute to require the presence of a port which is not required to connect to the printer.  If I replace theis printer in order to print from this computer, the replacement will certainly not be another HP.

    Hello.

    Inside, File Explorer type folder in the address bar and press ENTER.

    Search the last HP installation file that begins with 7Z (e.g. 7zs1234)

    Open the installation folder.

    Find the file usbready.exe and rename it to usbready.old

    Browse a level upwards and double-click Setup.exe, now follow the installation and check for the difference.

  • Device not recognized USB message with iPhone 3g

    Here's the story from the beginning, I hope that I have provide sufficient detail.

    I got my iPhone 3 G is replaced. Therefore, a new phone... I went on iTunes in the middle of the restoration... It gave an error message and put my phone in recovery mode. Since my computer gives me the message "USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED" and appears as an "unknown device" in Bus USB controller in Device Manager.

    I went to apple and they finished the restoration... I plugged the phone on other computers... It is therefore not the phone.

    Still nothing pops up... It keeps giving me "USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED" I have uninstalled iTunes the right way... as Apple people walking through and reinstalled... the Apple Mobile Device is started.

    I still get nothing... everything is... newly installed... Windows doesn't recognize just... that it doesn't show up as a camera... and it does not even charge my phone.

    I tried different ports... and I get the same message... my camera and my sisters iPod shuffle connect correctly.

    I really need help! I don't know what else to do... I need to work on this computer. It's a Toshiba Satellite Windows Xp SP3

    I just went through two weeks of tampering with my 'old' computer trying to recognize my new 4370dn Canon multifunction printer after installing Windows 7.  I tried to reinstall Windows XP, uninstall the USB ports and hubs in Device Manager, update the printer drivers and several combinations of these elements.  In my case the ports would recognize external hard drives and flash drives, but my printer would come as a device not recognized.  Finally, what worked for me was to uninstall all the ports/USB hubs listed in Device Manager (they get automatically reinstalled with a soft reboot of the computer) again, download a driver from the Intel website (http://downloadcenter.intel.com/confirm.aspx?httpDown=http://downloadmirror.intel.com/16023/a08/infinst_autol.exe&agr=&ProductID=&DwnldId=16023&strOSs=&OSFullName=&lang=eng) chipset installation utility and restart the computer.  When I plugged the USB cable from the printer, the normal process of new device was launched.
  • I have a Robin Didital DPF - 710 photo frame, but there was not a usb port, how can I transfer photos from comp to a memory card

    I HAVE A DIGITAL ROBIN PHOTO FRAME DPF-710 FOR WHICH THE CARD MEMORY IS 1.0 GB, THE PROBLEM IS I WOULD ADD MORE PHOTOS ON THE CARD BUT DO NOT KNOW HOW TO IT AS THE IMAGE HAS NO USB PORT AND I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE PICTURES ON MY COMPUTER TO THE MEMORY CARD, COULD YOU PLEASE ME TELL HOW.

    I guess just that your computer has a media player?

    (If no drive media... Connect the device to your PC
    via USB cable and turn on... Reach... Start / computer...
    your camera must be listed with a drive letter.)

    If you go to... Start / computer... media player should
    be recognized as one or more removable disks... it can
    have several drive letters.

    Removable disk (e :))
    Removable drive (g)
    Removable disk (h :))

    Left click the drive letters... When you identify the drive
    Letter for the media player... (it will be the one making
    does not launch a dialog box that says: "Please insert a disk".
    in the drive? ») ...

    Follow these steps...

    Navigate to the folder in which the photos are... Open it and
    Reach... Edition/select all... right click the selected (highlighted)
    Group and from the menu choose... Send to / removable
    Disk?... Or... left, click on a folder and do the same thing.

    Only a limited number of files can be copied to the root
    Directory of the card... if you transfer lots of photos...
    they must be in one or more folders. If you receive one
    error that says: "cannot copy xxxx (xxxx): the directory '.
    the file cannot be created. » .. There's too many files in
    the root directory of the memory card.

    FWIW... the camera may not recognize the photos if they
    have been published in some way, but they will always be on the
    memory card for use by other means.

  • Device not recognized USB - mouse

    Hi - write a new thread that I raised in a previous which I suppose is not sought at the most. Mods - delete please if you always looked at the other thread.

    I started intermittently gel experience with my old USB mouse, so I replaced it, that to have my new mouse (Canyon CNR-MSL7) begin to experience the same problems. Intermittent at first, but it became unusable over time - error "USB device not recognized". I tried two mice in another PC and they work fine. I use Vista is said by the way.

    I had a hard disk separated on my laptop (Sony VAIO VGN-AR71S) failure so I sent away for repair. I advised the hardware failure Sony and my USB mouse problems - she is back with a new HD but they said they found no defects with the USB.
    the mouse worked for about 1 day before I started getting the error 'USB device not recognized' again.

    A system restore will obviously work for me because my hard drive has been replaced and I have the same problem I had before, despite the installation of the more updated version of vista to Sony.

    The laptop has the most until drivers date etc, but does still not more than 95% of the time. I went through different threads here and I checked that everything is fine with the USB etc hubs, but not joy.

    I checked the ports are feeding correctly and that they are.

    I tried power down, stop and remove the advice of battery given here that seems to have worked so well for people but it does not work for me unfortunately.

    Is someone of MS can advise if it is sought in order to create a solution that works for those of us who does not work for the option "disconnect"? I tried all the solutions to this problem listed on the various threads on this subject in this area and other forums. Or can someone tell me if there is anything I can buy to remove the problem? Equipment etc? I thought that an upgrade to windows 7 could help, but I've seen a lot of discussion here that clearly show the same problem that appears for people who use it.

    Another new mouse like the ticket to me if you have hardware problems (and this is
    my best bet).

    Hello Prabha,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

    1. Do you have an error message when it is not detected? If YES, what is the exact and complete error message that you receive?

    I understand that the USB device is not detected by your computer. The question may arise if the currently loaded USB driver has become unstable or damaged or if your PC requires an update for problems that could conflict with a device USB and Windows. This can also occur if your USB controllers may have become unstable or corrupt. So, I would suggest trying the following steps and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    4. Restart the computer and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.
    5. Plug in the removable USB device and test to make sure that the problem is solved.

    If the problem persists, go to method 3.

    Method 3:

    Disable USB selective suspend framework. This method prevents your power off USB device.

    1. Click the Start button, type power management in the search box, and then click choose a power plan.
    2. Next to your currently selected plan, click Change Plan settings.
    3. Click change advanced power settings.

    6. If you use a laptop, click the cell, and then click the menu drop down and select disabled.
    7. Click apply, and then click OK.

    If your problem still exists, go to method 4.

    Method 4:

    This method will install the latest drivers from device to your USB device.

    1. Click the Start button, type Windows Update in the search box, and then click Windows Update in the results pane.
    2. Click find updates. When the scan finished, click optional review updates.
    3. Click the check box next to the update, and then click install updates.
    4. If you are prompted, read the license agreement, then click I agree.

  • LASERJET 1022 device not recognized USB

    When I connect my laserjet 1022 printer on my computer, I get the message "USB device not recognized". normally, I use Windows 7 64 bit, but I try to connect another computer that has Windows XP OS. Win7 or Win XP allows to print anything with appropriate drivers. I think that this is not a driver problem, it seems to be a hardware problem. Everybody respected this problem before, I can't use this printer.

    also we have an another 1022 that works, I replace my printer to it and my printer is not yet printed.

    If I have a hardware problem somebody advice me anything.

    Thanks for your help,

    The printer will print a test if not connected to the computer page? If this isn't the case, then the hardware problem is the printer that is connected.

    If you print a page of test if not connected to the computer, then the problem is on the side of the computer. Try another cable USB or port. Some computers, especially laptops, can have very delicate USB ports (my laptop Lenovo's ) and USB cables can go wrong.

  • E6420 not recognizing USBs when at docking station

    New Dell 6420 running Windows 7 32-bit - when you are connected to the docking station, it does not recognize the USB ports. Ive connected my USB mouse in every usb port and nothing to receive. I connect it to the port on the laptop itself, moored and its recognized. My first thought was bad docking station, tried another (both are new) with the same result. I actually ended up trying all 4 together during my whole process. Ive done the full restart, plug back on and off the docking station with the same result. I tested the usb ports moored in the bios - the mouse is recognized in all ports. That's when the laptop is docked, in the bios settings. So I thought Windows problem, maybe a bad installation... I started Windows and now all but 2 usb ports on the docking station (or port replicator, I should say) detect the usb mouse and other usb devices. I also checked the device (while only docked and undocked) Manager the only thing Bell is an unknown device under usb devices (this unknown device stays anchored and detached).  Any suggestions on what can happen and what I should fix this... im trying to stay away from doing a full reinstall.

    Thank you.

    WARNING: THIS MAY NOT SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM (but there is an equal chance that it will be then I would try it if I were you)

    Hello

    I just started a new job and had the same problem. I fixed it as follows:

    Go to the computer

    Go to system properties

    Go to the Device Manager

    You should see "Network adapters" section full of "Unknown devices" for me there were two of them and two other devices with unrecognized names.

    Right click on each one from the first on and select "update driver software...". »

    Select "search automatically.

    After I updated all of these drivers and plugged the nano-receiver for my keyboard and wireless mouse in the dock of the computer finally recognized and let me use the keyboard and mouse, I use what I'm typing this message :)

    I hate to see these tickets up on sites for years without anyone answering them that it's really frustrating, and not a good sign for a manufacturer/vendor like Dell. Hope everyone who comes on this forum with this problem is it resolved.
