Problems with USB devices in Windows XP Mode on Windows 7 Pro

I have a Palm Zire 21 that I use with ACT! Contact Manager to keep track of my appointments.  I was able to sync the Palm with my ACT database until this week. The device appears on the list of USB devices, but does not connect to Windows XP mode.

I used this device in XP Mode since August without any problem.  Last week, I started having problems with the integration of XP features and had to uninstall and reinstall the integration features a few times.  I think I have a corrupted somewhere driver.

Any help would be appreciated.

No need to comment unless you have more insight.

I solved the problem myself.  In XP mode, I went to the Device Manager and scroll down to USB controllers.  A virtualization USB bus drivers showed a problem.   I uninstalled this device and then managed to reinstall my Palm correctly after connecting it to the USB port, and then going back to the menu at the top of the XP USB mode screen and hit connect when I saw my camera.  The device connected in XP automatically and I was off to the races.

  • Big problems with USB devices

    Since I upgraded to El Capitan I have several, serious problems with USB devices:

    1 USB hard drive: everything by watching a video from an external hard drive, the hard drive will be to disassemble all the minutes, the video will be of course hang and it takes 45-60 seconds until the drive reconnects. I also can not boot from any external hard drive more. Booting from a USB key works fine.

    2. I can't transfer my Sunny BT11 of beam data more. The Sunny Beam is a device that records the data of my photovoltaic plant. The overview of the system he sees when connected via USB, however he is not recognized and so I can't transfer data files. Also, it makes not a difference if it is connected via a USB hub or directly, the two versions do NOT work. In the Finder preferences, all devices are controlled to display on the desktop.

    The two scenarios always perfectly work with my Mac mini that has not been updated and uses Mac OS X 10.10.

    Hello Gulliver,

    It seems that if you live with loss of connection of your USB devices since the installation of Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan, is that correct?

    I suggest that you are troubleshooting by following the steps in this article - OS X El Capitan: If a USB device does not work

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  • Problem with the reinstallation of Windows XP Pro

    A few days ago my Windows XP Pro showed an error at startup, which has declared "activation failed". I have been using the computer for several years. I installed my XP disk to recover the system. After several hours (overnight), he continued to show "Please wait".

    I decided to reinstall windows, it showed that I loose all my data, so I copied them to another drive, and then run to install windows in a different directory (C:\Windows2). I also used a newspaper different name in order to keep my files intact.

    Then, I decided to install windows on "C:\windows" with another in log.

    I now have a selection of dual-boot. One for windows and one for windows2 (show 'Windows XP Pro').

    My question is how I can remove the dual boot. I also need to eliminate some of the user data files.

    Then use msconfig to remove the entry from the start for windows2 installation menu and then delete the folder for windows2

  • BSOD problems with a computer of windows 8

    Hello. I've had my computer for over a year now, and since about a week after I got it I had several problems with it. Initially, I had problems with usb devices works sometimes not. In this case I have to restart several times hoping to rework them. Over time, that has become less of a problem, but still exists. Then when I play games on my pc as the League of legends and world of warcraft games themselves would break several times. I also had problems with different programs crashing like Skype, google chrome and also blocks flash in chrome. Soon enough my whole system was crashing with BSOD messages or sometimes would be only to randomly restart or freeze.

    Here is a list of the different BSOD:

    irql not less or equal, page fault in nonpaged area, kmode exception not handled, pool header corruption of infrastructure critical bad memory management

    Unexpected kernel mode trap and driver irql not less or equivalent. With several different drivers be blamed.

    Now its to the point where I'll watch a live stream on twitch.tv or a video on youtube and it will crash after a few minutes. It happens more often in these situations, or in game, but it can also happen randomly even if soon as just start or idle.

    I tried many different things to update many pilots to replace my ram and hard drive as well as full reinstalls of windows and system different restore points. I wanted to ask you on this forum about it to see if it has what I can do to solve this problem before I send in for repair because I prefer not to be without him for an extended period of time.

    Thank you for hearing me.

    These accidents were related to the corruption of memory (probably caused by a driver).

    Please run these tests to check your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.


    If you're overclocking (pushing components beyond their design) return you to default at least until the crash is resolved. If you don't know what it is that you're probably not overclocking.

    Since then, it is more likely to be a pilot run everything first.

    Hi Miguelsmith,

    2. you remember to make changes to the computer recently?

    You can uninstall and reinstall all USB device manager entries and check if it helps.

    a. Click Start and typedevmgmt.msc and then click OK. Device Manager opens.

    b. expand Bus USB controllers.

    Note: You will need to scroll down to find this point.

    c. the first USB controller under Bus USB controllers right click and then click on uninstall to remove it.

    d. Repeat steps above for each controller USB is listed under Bus USB controllers.

    e. restart the computer. After the computer starts, Windows will automatically check for changes on the hardware and reinstall all USB controllers that you uninstalled.

    f. check the USB device to see if it works

  • Problem with USB Redirection on Horizon View Client v2.3.0 for Linux

    I had a problem on the USB Redirection when connecting to the Server of VMware View by Horizon View Client v2.3.0.

    1. Here is our configuration:
      1. Server:
        1. Horizon View Server 5.5 + Windows 7 Enterprise VDI
      2. Client:
        1. Thin client (TI ARM platform - 8148)
        2. Horizon View Client v2. 3 for Linux
        3. USB Flash: Kingston 8 GB USB 2.0, FAT32
    2. The issue: USB flash can not redirect to VDI successfully.
    3. Some status on our test:
    • The USB is plugged USB port on workstation before connecting to Horizon view Server 5.5
    • Light client can recognize and use USB flash to the local site.
    • When we connect to VDI, we can see the USB driver is responsible for research and installation, but windows VDI() reports fail to install the USB driver finally. It seems that VDI trying to acknowledge the failure of USB flash but finally.
    • It is held even Let's restart the workstation and VDI.
    • Attached file is the log of the Horizon of the VMware View Client.


    All welcomed to this topic?

    Unfortunately the newspapers show much... (note: they do not contain client-side logs)

    one thing I thought well... since he is a computer thinClient - we have seen the questions that manufacturers computer thinClient some of their own 'management' software install on the client. He often tries to do things with usb devices (maybe try to share them between a receiver client citrix application and view client app or maybe just there is a citrix receiver application installed too). In our experience, we've seen these apps interfere between them as they try to hang the bottom of usb devices down into the kernel.

    as such, could you try stop any 3rd party services - either citrix or your provider of thin client and then try again.

    If the problem persists, can you be sure to also collect these log files from the computer thinclient:

    Windows client

    • %ProgramData%\VMware\VDM\logs\debug-*.txt
      AND
    • C:\Windows\Temp\vmware-SYSTEM\vmware-usbarb-*.log

    Linux client

    • default /tmp/vmware-root/VMware-view-Usbd-*.log
      AND
    • / Library/Logs/VMware/vmware-usbarbitrator -.log

    for reference, the Agent-side usb connects:

    • %ProgramData%\VMware\VDM\logs\debug-*.txt

    You may need to contact Samsung for more information, if the update is available for download on their Web site.

    When started this issue is happening?

    You can disable the virtual WiFi adapter, as it essentially works as a tool of development at the moment:
