  I tried to look for a download of update on the site of Logitech & only found:

  6.32.20 set - point it did nothing to help.

  I also tried to move the receiver to the other 2 ports USB w / still the same results.

  Are there other downloads or solutions that will help w / this problem?

  You can also try searching for devices strangers (with yellow symbols) in the Manager under the mouse devices and other pointing devices and other devices (if any). Right click and uninstall unknown devices. Then restart.

  Also try the steps below to reset the power of USB:
  (a) the laptop off, unplugged from the wall outlet.

  (c) then restart the laptop.

  Some time ago I had a huge problem with my computer (I think that my mother-in-law accidentally downloaded a virus) and I took it to a repair shop where they wiped out completely and replaced the hard drive.  Since I got it back when I try to use my wireless mouse and plug the nano receiver he said 'one of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it.  Why he says this?  And what can I do about it if anything?  I already tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling, but that did not work because as soon as I plugged it it again once he says the same thing.  So I don't know what is happening or how to fix it.  Please help me!

• Error: One of the USB devices attached to this system has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it.

  tried already everything written here. When I plug my USB device (3 of them) my Windows a sad of the USB devices attached to this system has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it. I tried plugging it into another winXP machine, it won't work. Can you help me?

  Original title: usb malfunction

  His salvation,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

  1. What are the troubleshooting steps you have tried so far?
  2. If it works much earlier? If so, did you do changes on the computer before this problem?
  3. What type of USB device you are using?

  As you mentioned that the USB device does not work when plugged into a WinXP machine, it may be a problem with the device itself. In addition, the question may also 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.

  Therefore, I suggest you try the following methods (skip the ones that you already tried) and check if the problem persists.

  Method 1:

  Please try the fixit (s) provided below which will help you solve common problems associated with devices and USB ports.

  • Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows
  • Diagnose and automatically fix the Windows USB problems

  If method 1 does not work, try Method 2.

  Method 2:

  Remove and reinstall all USB controllers.

  1. Open Manager devices by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, click system and security, and then, under System, clicking Device Manager. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
  2. In the list of the categories of equipment, locate and expand Bus USB controllers.
  3. Right-click every device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
  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:

  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.
  5. Follow the instructions on the screen to download and install updates.
  6. If you are prompted, restart your computer.

  More information: Update a hardware driver that is not working properly

  If the device fails after updating the driver, you can try to roll back the driver with its previous version.

  Restore a driver with its previous version

  Hope this information is useful. If the problem still persists, please post back for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.
