USB keys do not work in my VISTA PC, but working in the XP computer.

My PC is only a few months and underwarranty. VISTA is OEM original and authentic. All updates and installed SP2.

But I have several problems with VISTA.

One of them is the following:-

USB keys do not work in this PC. Initially, they are recognized, but as soon as I start the data transfer it stops and does not recognize the keys more. Same USB keys work correctly on other XP computers.

An external hard drive works perfectly on the same USB port. If the port is fine.

Hello PG_eu,

First of all if still under warranty, contact the manufacturer to execute tests for your USB slots. Have you tried to see if other devices work on the USB plug? The manufacturer of your may be able to replace your computer if needed.

Then, I'd go for the Device Manager to see if you have errors. Go to Device Manager and see if you have a yellow fringe! showing that there are errors with your USB devices. Open the Device Manager in Windows Vista via the management utility of the computer, the Control Panel, or from the command prompt by typing in devmgmt.msc.

You can go to the different tabs and see if the devices work properly, should be cancelled or update your drivers.
You can also go into the event viewer and see if you have errors on your hardware devices.

I hope this helps.

Sincerely,

Marilyn

    Unfortunately - when one of these drives (USB thumb drives) goes to the South, more often - it is always toast.  There is no real help to recover the data: that is why everything should be saved.

    Ah! -in this case, it is not necessary.

    I see from my records that a similar case has been solved by uninstalling and reinstalling the update WAT - KB971033

    Open the Windows Update - click the link view updates installed on the left of the page

    in the list, find the WAT update KB971033, and then uninstall it.

    Then restart and reinstall the update from here - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971033

    redemarrer restart again, then try to change your product key to the one on the sticker - what is happening this time?

    suddenly, the Enter key does not work in the scrreen of connection (win 7 64 bit, toshiba portege Z830 - X 11), which some do not login with password.

    The on-screen keyboard sends the "enter" or the other.
    When in safe mode, everything works as it should.

    I solved this problem by disabling the password for the account, but I don't feel well in this situation.

    Have you tried an external USB keyboard?
    Do this!

    Not very well why the ENTER key does not work on the login page, but I guess its problem of keyboard.

    Hello.

    I am using HP ENVY 15-k203tx and I have NVIDIA GeForce GTX 850 M
    I recently upgraded the operating system of windows 8.1 to windows 10
    Brightness shortcut keys do not work

    All the drivers are up to date.

    PnP monitor is also activated. What should I do?

    Hello

    You laptop has Intel/Nvidia switchable graphics and search RTA the screenshot, it does not resemble the driver Intel is installed.

    Try the following.

    Download driver Intel HD Graphics on the following link and save it in your downloads folder.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp72501-73000/sp72810.exe

    Once complete, download and reinstall the Chipset driver from the link below.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp72001-72500/sp72043.exe

    When it's over, don't reboot not the laptop that you are prompted, rather open your download folder, right-click on the Intel HD Graphics package and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.

    Once this done, reboot the laptop and let Windows load completely for a few minutes before checking.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite L855 - 14 p - USB ports do not work after the mode 'sleep'

    Heya guys,

    I have a strange problem today. The 2 USB inputs on the right side of the laptop (idk who is 2.0 or 3.0) does not work with the reason I can not perceive. These 2 guys are on different days, but in the same way. A month ago, I plugged the mouse USB wireless to one of them, then entered mode 'sleep'. When I came back, I discovered the work of mouse aint.

    Then I realized the port I plugged the key USB has no electiricity inside no more. I found it very strange and continuous without using the port of broken, until yesterday. Yesterday, I made the same mistake (a la mode "sleep" in a USB port plugged into the other port - work-) and I have re-opened, the 2nd port is broken in the same way, too. I've mastered Manager devices, regedit, but it has no use. This lead me to think his could be a hardware problem, but how can be possible? Is this a coincidence?

    Now, I have to use my 3rd and last port on the right side of the laptop with a USB duplicator.
    You have any ideas? Can it be a software problem?

    Understand this correctly? The USB ports mentioned don t work even after restarting a new laptop?

    In this case, it could be really a hardware problem
    But before talking about hardware problems, I recommend to recover the laptop using Toshiba recovery.

    Defining the notebook back to factory settings will help you identify the problem: If the USB ports wouldn't work, this s hardware problem.

  • the Windows 7 usb Installer may not work on the usb port 3

    Windows 7 install usb does not work on the usb port 3 with 32 GB usb 3 keys, says he needs a cd/dvd driver?

    but there is no cd drive in this machine.
    Works very well with an old USB 2 on usb 2 & usb ports 3 in the same machine.
    But no usb 3 key into a usb port 3?
    any ideas?

    Thanks anyway JW stuart.

    I managed to find a way to do it, I needed to set the usb drivers 3 unzipped on a 2nd USB on usb port 2 to use when the Setup program has been started and lost the USB 3.
    the ol F6 trick always works with win 7 and is more flexible, now that it allows pilots more than just raid.

    Each cell function requires special tools and utilities.
    In the case of FN keys, Toshiba software controls this feature.
