Setting for "allow device to wake the computer" gray for the USB root hubs

So I wanted to change the setting for "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" in Windows 7 Device Manager. I accidentally also selected "allow this device to wake the computer".

I want to change the setting back to "Allow this device wake the computer", but it is grayed out.
Anyone know where I can switch this back in the registry?

  • Uninstalled the USB root HUB and now computer will not work

    Hello

    Just got a new computer and I'm afraid I might have broke it...

    My computer is a HP Envy 23-c100xt with Windows 8.

    I tried to use one of the ports 3.0 and 2.0 and it wouldn't read my USB, but I tried on another computer so I know this isn't the USB. So I followed some web tips online here and did this:

    Click on start and type device in the search for field, and then select Device Manager uninstall USB root hub

    Restarted my computer and the screen refreshes itself automatically every 4 seconds. Cannot open any program or even go to Manager tasks.

    Help, please!

    Thank you!!!

    Are you sure you don't have anything else? It is difficult to see how to uninstall a device could lead to consequences also as usually convince windows NOT to reinstall the drivers and devices, it is what causes the trouble, not the other way around.

    Uninstalling devices does not lead to what you describe.

  • Satellite A200 - 26 d - error code 19 Device Manager on the USB ports

    I decided to try Windows 7, but the usb ports do not work in Device Manager all the usb root hubs have a yellow triangle and the State of the device says "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) ».

    I tried to uninstall via the Device Manager and restart the computer and download and reinstall the drivers for vista, because I can't seem to find the drivers for Windows 7, but none of this fixed anything. I was wondering if there was something else I could try or if I could get a link for the correct drivers.

    Hey JP317!

    If it didn t work removing the USB ports in Device Manager and restart the laptop, you should try to update the chipset drivers because they are usually a part of it.

    So check the site Web of Intel for an update and you should also find Windows 7 drivers.

    If you have any other questions, please let us know!

  • How to read the data in a device connected to the usb port

    Is there a class or object, or the piece of code in Java that is comparable to the PDQComm32.ocx and the mscomm32.ocx used in VB6? I need to know how to read the data of a device plugged into the usb port of the BBerry. Is it possible to use the BB to read data from a device via a usb cable?

    I'm new in Java and I'm looking for the opportunity to write a project to read the data in a device with this program that can turn on a BB instead of on a pc.

    That's what the doc says:

  • BlackBerry Smartphones to Blackberry Manager devices to display the USB PINS

    My Blackberry Bold 9000 is not recognized by my office blackberry Device Manager.  After hours of playing around to try to solve this problem, here is what information I can provide.

    My desktop and laptop running Vista 64-bit.  I had no problem installing the Desktop Manager on my laptop and cable, updated processes, etc. all work fine.  In my view, this allows me to isolate the desktop and not the device or the cable. The Desktop Manager software is to date on both systems.

    When I try to get the Blackberry device manager to recognize my camera on my desk, in the table options of connection under connection, that COM1 is displayed, Disable stateful shown.  USB-Blackberry 9000 (Paperback) appears on the laptop.  I've hunted around these tips and google for a solution to this problem, but I have not yet found one.  Under the Windows Device Manager, "Blackberry Smartphone" is listed under USB controllers when the unit is plugged, and the drivers are updated according to the instructions on these cards.

    The functions of USB ports for the operation of the keyboard, mouse, and external storage.  I tried to connect to all six USB ports in the back and two on the front of my office, without result.  When the device is connected to my desktop computer, Windows recognises the Smartphone and SD card separately as mass storage devices - with the phone powered on or off mass storage device option.

    I have a feeling that this would be resolved if I could get the Blackberry device manager to display a USB instead of COM1 port.  Someone at - it solutions?

    Hey this is my solution... it worked perfectly for me, and oddly enough, this is a difficulty for VMWare (also the difficulty to detect USB devices)

    Try to right click on one of the USB hubs (in Device Manager) and looking at the details of the driver. If usbfilter.sys is in the list then open your registry editor and navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class {36FC9E60-C465-11CF-8056-444553540000} and remove the UpperFilter, pair of usbfilter.

    I restarted after making this change, and it works fine now.  Its the first time in the month that I could plug my Curve 8900 using my USB on my PC 64-bit of Windows Vista (now Windows 7).

    KUDO to the population of VMWare for this solution.  Thank God, she also fixed for my BB Desktop Manager! WOOT WOOT!

  • Is it possible to set up a printer wireless without the USB cable?

    Hello

    I have a HP Photosmart C4580 and I wanted to set up to run on a network, but I don't have a USB cable. I tried to install it without one, but it does not appear on the network, and I was wondering if you really need a USB cable to install it?

    Thank you.

    1. turn Radio on wireless to the printer.

    2. on your computer, search for all available wireless networks. You should find a named "hpsetup". Go ahead and connect to this network and ignore all warnings.

    3. wait 1 minute after have connected you to the network. Then, print a network of the printer Configuration Page. It should list an IP beginning with 169.254.x.x.

    4. type this address in the address bar of any web browser. You will reach the Embedded Server (EWS) Web of the printer.

    5 use the Wireless\Networking tab at the top and looking for an option to ' 802.11 wireless networks. On this page, you will be able to enter your network settings wireless (screenshot attached to facilitate their identification).

    6. make sure that you change the SSID for your network name. Click on the option button 'Infrastructure' and enter your WEP\WPA pasphrase. ENTER THE SSID AND PASSWORD EXACTLY AS IT IS, OR IT CANNOT CONNECT TO THE NETWORK.

    7. click on the button to apply and wait for the confirmation of the parameters being recorded.

    8 restart the printer. Once again the Config network printer page. Now, it must have a such IP assigned by your router and not with 169.254.x.x.

    I tried to uninstall and reinstall and nothing has changed. Someone has an idea of what could be bad?

    Hello

    Sometimes USB devices can be recognized correctly because of the low power from USB ports. Usually, USB devices should work with 500mA of power. It is a standard. But sometimes the USB devices need more than only of 500mA. In this case, you can use an external USB hub with external power supply.

    You can also disable the power save option in the device under USB root hub Manager.
    You will find a power management tab. Please enter in this tab and disable the option: allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
