• Windows Vista does not respond after the removal of a usb device! HELP Please!

  I have windows vista for my PC and I noticed that most of the time when I remove a usb device, the computer is unresponsive and crashes on me shortly after. And I won't have any choice but to cut the main power supply if the computer shuts down. I know that this cannot continue and will eventually damage the computer. Is there a solution and why this can happen?

  Hi ClaudL,

  1. this happens with all type USB devices?

  2 when was the last time it was working fine?

  It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

  I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  Reset the computer to start as usual

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

  (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

  (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

  (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

  I hope this helps!

• USB device recognized on Windows 7, but not Windows XP

  Last week, some of my USB devices need not be recognized on my Windows XP SP3 laptop.

  First of all, it happened with 2 external USB HDD connected via a mini USB hub. Connecting them individually did not solve the problem. The error I got was:

  USB device not recognized. One of the USB devices attached to this computer has worked and Windows does not recognize.

  More importantly, the laptop is no longer recognizing my USB thumb drive, which works perfectly on my Windows 7 machine to work.

  Can I reinstall my USB drivers? Just remove the USB devices, reboot and let Windows reinstall them? They need to be specific to the manufacturers of the drivers?

  I deleted it and reinstalled my hubs USB Device Manager etc, but a device is not installed correctly: mass storage controller. It is of course preventing me from accessing the USB and external hard drives. Where can I get the drivers for this if Windows XP does not have? Sure that the key USB is FAT32 (the default format) I went in the properties of the mass storage controller in the Manager of peripheral and copied the device ID. I did a Google search and was surprised to find that it was a card reader. I downloaded the drivers from my manufacturer Web site, and Windows has detected and installed the drivers for the card reader, as well as the mass storage controller. The USB appears in the Explorer, but shows 0 items. I have After the reboot, the USB is not in Windows Explorer, and when I unplug and reinsert an error comes up saying the USB device is not recognized and malfunctioned.

  The solution was to turn off the laptop, remove the power cable and leave it for a few hours, before feeding it back.

  Windows detected and installed the device very well then.

  I don't think that I understand perfectly why he fixed.

• 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.

• Satellite Pro 6100 USB XP SP2 remove USB device after suspend

  I have a Pro Satellite XpPro 6100 running.
  I have a problem since I installed SP2 of XP in that USB falls when the computer wakes from sleep.

  The computer is up there, but I can reproduce this with SP2 only. Fortunately, I did a Norton Ghost and I restored the status of versions prior to SP2 for now.

  It does not matter what is connected to the USB port, or which port it's plugged. Out of sleep causes a ToolTip message in the taskbar on an icon that represents the USB port - and the message says 'USB device not recognized '.
  I can't find any help on the microsoft site, nor on the discussion group. I am at a loss as elsewhere where I can watch.

  Thanks in advance for any comments.

• Problem of USB ports: remove the material does not work. It works on different computers for the same USB devices

  Original title: problem of USB ports:

  I have a computer dell laptop inspiron d1420 provided with Windows vista and I have upgraded to Windows 7 ultimate, I noticed that when I plug in a USB mass storage, when I try to remove it, I don't get the safe delete the message and lately when I try to remove it, I keep getting the message He's busy and I can't remove it. I tried the same USB on another PC and I have no problem at all. I connected a printer, USB cable and wondows llok have not the driver or didn't install the printer, he left as a device not specified with the name of the printer, but I can't print. I tried with another PC that is also running Windows 7 ultimate and I have no problem, windows has installed the driver, because I used the same printer and the same cable. What is the problem with my USB 4 ports and how to fix?

  Hello

  When you get this message while trying to remove a USB, it's basically a lock for this USB device by some process running on the computer. If we know which process is this locking mechanism, we could also find which Service is associated with this problem in the computer.

  To check this, you can use a program called Process Explorer. You can download this program from the following link. Once downloaded, extract the contents of the zip downloaded to a folder on your desktop. Inside this folder, you will see a file by the name of procexp , which is the executable for Process Explorer. The download link is:

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/Sysinternals/bb896653

  First, plug the USB to one of the USB ports. Then, once you have the executable to Process Explorer, right-click on it and then click run as administrator. Please allow all guests UAC can occur. Once the Process Explorer is running, please follow these steps to search for processes using the USB at the moment:

  1. click on Searchand then click on manage to find them or DLL on the options menu at the top.

  2. then in the pop - up which will turn up next, type the drive letter for the USB drive connected to the computer (for example G: or H:) right now and click on Search.

  3. he should then display all instances of the process that is using this USB at the moment with the corresponding process ID (PID).

  Now, once you have the names of processes using the USB at this time, you can terminate them by clicking on them and then clicking on Manage close. Once this is done, you should be able to eject the USB safely.

  I would like to ask the names of processes lock the drive in your computer. This should give us an idea of what we might have to take the next.

  In addition, for the other issue that you mentioned, in which the computer does not automatically and correctly detects the printer when it is connected to the computer, I suggest you to check whether or not your computer Plug-and-Play service is set to automatic. Here's how you can do this:

  1. press the Windows and the R on your keyboard to get to the top of the run box.

  2. type Services.msc in the run box and press enter on the keyboard. Allow all UAC prompts that may coming up next.

  3. once it opens the window of the Services for you, scroll down to the Plug-and-Play service and double-click it.

  4. in the properties box that will come next, the Startup type should be set to Auto and the Status of the Service must be started. If this isn't the case, please put these values.

  5. click on apply then OK, close all windows in the computer and restart the computer once.

  Once these steps was performed, please check if the problem remains the same. We know the results.

  I hope that these steps raises you in the right direction in order to solve this problem. Don't answer if you still need assistance, we will be happy to be of assistance.
