Satellite A30: Does not recognize USB devices.

My computer does not recognize any devices when connected to the USB Port on my Satellite A30. After downloading SP2, I was able to install the printer, but I can't use it because there is no printer icon in the toolbar. If I want to print something I get the window of the printer, select printing, then it goes to the author of the Image of MS Office. Basically, I can't use my printer or any other device connected to a USB port.

However, it was working perfectly fine when I had the home edition of XP but I can not reinstall this one because there is something wrong with the recovery disk that's why I had to install XP Pro.
Also, I used to get a sound, letting me know that a device has been connected. I get more or the icon in the toolbar.

Is that what I could do to fix this please? Is it possible to get another disc of recovery somehow? Obviously, it's something to do with XP Pro software, but I don't know what to do.
Could you please help me?

Thank you!

Hello

If you get a window of the printer you need to select the right printer. If printing goes to MS Office Image writer so the right printer is not selected.

On the new installation: If you install the operating system from the original Windows CD you must install the necessary drivers and QFE patches all in the right order.

USB port: I found a useful paper on this topic:

Good bye

    Suddenly my laptop does not recognize any USB.

    Hello

    What about the USB mouse? You can use the USB mouse connected to one of the USB ports?

    Have you changed the system or you have installed new OS on this laptop?
    I m asking because the L50 - B Satellite supports USB 2.0 as well USB 3.0 ports

    In the case where you have installed the new OS (Win 7?) on this laptop, the USB 3.0 ports would require additional USB 3.0 driver

    However, in case that you are always using the OS preinstalled Toshiba, I recommend you to reset the initial setup and test the USB ports once more.

    I put t know which devices in broadband services, you want to say but generally if you want to communicate or transfer files between laptops through the WiFi network so all the computers must be in the same domain or workgroup.

    I can't give you a correct answer, but only a suggestion. I have red that sometimes a lower potency could be responsible for this show. Try turning off the safe power option in the properties of the hub USB root in Device Manager.

  • Windows 7 does not recognize USB devices. Have no system access keyboard or mouse.

    Separated from this thread.

    It is a question.  I have a Windows 7 laptop.  It has three USB ports.  They always worked perfectly.  Today, one of them stopped: Port_ #0001.Hub_ #0002

    A sign of error says: "unrecognized usb device".  Troubleshooting, said that there no problem but under properties of the device, he says that Windows has turned off because it has detected a problem (Code 43).  I tried to plug in several things: camera, various readers flash, mouse, etc. They all used to work properly until today.  Now, it's just a dead port.

    Hi Seiberte,

    Thanks for posting the request in Microsoft Community Forums. I appreciate all the steps you tried to solve the problem.

    What is the brand and model of the computer?

    A device driver has notified the operating system that the device failed. This situation can occur if the peripheral equipment fails or if the device driver fails.

    To resolve this issue, follow these steps.

    1. To open Device Manager, click Start, click files, and research programsand type Device Manager. A list of the available items will appear above the search box; Click on Device Manager. Device Manager opens with the name of your computer to the top and a list of the devices installed on your computer under the name of your computer.
    2. Locate the device in the list of devices, right-click on the device and then click Uninstall. When a warning message that you uninstall a device in your system, click OK. Device Manager uninstall the device.
    3. Right click on the name of your computer in the Device Manager, then click on Search the hardware changes. Device Manager scan your system and reinstall your device automatically.
    4. Right click on the device, and then click Properties. The general of the device, in the State of the device Properties dialog box tab, you should see the message this device does not work correctly.

    If the steps above do not solve problems with the device and the device is an external drive, such as an external hard drive or USB flash drive, use the icon of the taskbar to safely eject the device, and then disconnect the device from the computer. For devices that use AC power, unplug the unit from the wall outlet or the power strip, wait 30 seconds and then plug it in again. Turn on the switch of the device and then plug it into your computer. If the system includes a driver diskette, ensure that you have at hand to install device drivers; otherwise, Windows should automatically locate the appropriate drivers and install them.

  • Re: My Satellite L350 does not recognize USB key

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L350-235. It suddenly stopped recognizing my usb key that I use every day. Normally, he would say "new hardware found" and allow me to click on the F drive, now I get nothing!

    Can someone advise me?

    I guess that the USB ports are working properly if you connect another device; something like USB mouse. Right?

    In my opinion, you should test the USB in USB ports.
    You can also try to remove the USB controllers and hubs from the Device Manager list.
    After restarting of new laptop, (ports) USB controllers must be recognized, and then you could connect and test the USB again.

    In the event that the USB is not recognized by one of the available USB ports, try to connect to another USB key.

    Hi Michael,

    As you mentioned, the problem disappeared using another USB cable, it means that the USB cable has gone wrong.

    You can continue to use another USB cable to connect the Canon 40 d SLR digital.

  • Satellite L640 - does not recognize USB and does not start webcam

    Hello

    I regularly get the pop up usb malfunction when built in webcam fails to launch, I booked service, but now it works again. Any ideas what causes this and how can I prevent in the future? My family is abroad, and its function that I use more.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi europacific,.

    > I get a pop up usb malfunction
    This popup you get exactly? You can post a screenshot of this message? This would be useful.

    Sorry, but what to say on this subject? Some clarification would be useful, and no one knows what operating system you have.

    If you have some problems with the webcam I would try to update the driver for the webcam. You can download it from the official website of Toshiba.

  • Computer does not recognize USB devices after startup XP

    Computer was working fine.  Moved (by car) to another office.  At present, the keyboard will work until the time starts windows XP (SP3); It can control the it function and has a light illuminated NUMLOCK.  As XP starts, the Numlock light turns off and the keyboard is no longer functional.  It is obvious that the keyboard works, and the USB seems to be OK because he has worked with several installed keyboards until XP load upward.

    Any suggestions are appreciated!

  • Statellite M100 does not recognize USB storage devices or SD card

    I had problems with my laptop Toshiba Satellite M100 series read don't not Sandisk SD card in the camera to my son - is a 2 GB card and what I read online, maybe that is the problem BUT the laptop is also not reading any of my devices USB "stick". When I insert the SD card or a USB 'stick' he asks me to install the driver software that is simply stupid. I tried to connect the camera via a usb cable too and it does not recognize the device and still once, claims the driver software device.

    I looked on the toshiba site and have installed all updates that I thought may be justified, I'm also trying to run Windows update (at least every 2nd week anyway so it shouldn't be a problem). I am running Vista Home Edition (32 bit). The USB ports have certainly worked in the past, I don't really want to resort to execution of recovery discs if I have as I don't want to lose all the stuff I've stored.

    Question of the SD Card/USB seems to be a common one, but I can't find a specific patch to this topic or any other tech site, any suggestions?

    See you soon

    In your case, I would do two things.

    First: Check if a new BIOS is available. Search on the Toshiba site and do an update.

    Second: Reinstall the laptop with the recovery discs. I know that you will lose all the data, but you can save it to s DVD or external HARD drive.
