USB ports on my laptop has stopped working

Just like that, the USB ports on my DV4-1435DX just shrugged and stopped.  I received messages that says USB device not recognized.  I tried uninistalling and reinstall drivers for devices, thinking that somehow they were corrupt, but not go.  When I plug USB devices (unifying receiver of Logitech for my wireless keyboard and a mouse and a Bluetooth adapter) into the docking station, they work very well.

And don't you know just missed my guarantee in July 2010!

Does anyone else have this problem?  Will it cost me a lot to fix this problem?  I don't want to spend the money for a repair that will end up costing as much as the laptop costs in the first place.

The PDADoc!

Problem solved.  After much research, I found a ticket five years suggested I remove all the USB devices on the computer, turn it off and remove the battery and leave it a little.  Fifteen minutes later, I start my devices back up, plugged in and voila!  It was everything is working again!

I'm glad it's workng back again, a laptop computer without USB ports was a major problem, and I imagined costly repairs that would have made it cheaper just to buy a new one.

Phew!

  • Two of the four USB ports on my laptop has suddenly stopped working!

    My laptop (HP Pavilion) has a total of 4 ports USB (two on the left side) and two on the right side all of a sudden my laptop developed this problem, two ports USB on the left side of the laptop no longer works... They didn't stop working completely, because I can still charge my phone via the ports, but they do not detect any storage device I plug into them. The other two on the right side work perfectly... I checked my mobile device manager and the defective thing only seems to me pointed out under "other devices", where the driver for 'Fresco Logic' hub USB root is not installed... it shows "the drivers for this device are not installed (Code 28)" Please, this could be the problem and where can I find the driver?

    Hello

    You are welcome!

    I am pleased that the issue is resolved. Since it works fine, I do not think you have to worry.

    However, you can check this link:

    To find the version of ports, you can consult the HP manual (specifications).

  • HP Pavilion: Before port USB on HP desktop computer has stopped working

    My HP desktop computer is about 2 years old and has two USB ports on the front and a number on the back. I had no problem with any of the ports until I used a USB in the port now broken and caused a power outage that now this port doesn't recognize any USB device.  It says "USB device not recognized.  The last USB device you connected to this computer worked badly and Windows does not recognize. »

    I tried to uninstall and reinstall the USB ports on the Device Manager and have lived all the suggestions on the HP support site and the Microsoft support site. The defective USB key must have caused damage to the track. I hope you can suggest something that I can do to get it working again.

    Hello

    The only port on the front is damaged. The USB key must have damaged only this USB port. I'd like to reuse this memory bar.

    You need to replace the USB module, two ports USB 3.0 of housing as the two front ports use the same module and connections to the motherboard.

    You will probably need to go to HP for the part.

    You should be able to get access to the component by removing the front bezel. Remove the side panel also. You should see the connection of the cable and add him the USB 3.0 connector front on the motherboard.

  • USB 6008 analog i/o has stopped working

    Hello

    I have been using a USB-6008 for a few weeks now and it has worked well. I've been using the outputs digital, analog inputs and outputs this morning and they worked very well. I worked on something else for an hour or two and then resumed using the 6008, find the analog pins have stopped working. The show output analog on 1mV any value I send to them and the analog inputs always read - 10.3, despite limits MAX being set to 0 and + 5 (and me only using 0 - 5V on them). I tried all the inputs and outputs, in all ways (CSR, diff) with the same results. The digital outputs all work very well. Yes, he is grounded properly. Yes, the wires have continuity. My multimeter don't lie about me, either.

    I took the MAX test panel to solve the problems. The unit passes its tests of self-control, and my Labview program does not return errors by contacting the 6008. I don't connected the 6008 which could exceed the voltage or the current limits of entrances and exits. In fact, all I did was unplug it when I stopped using it as soon as possible and then reconnected it when I went back to work. The material to which it is connected has been turned off during this time.

    Any ideas? Thank you.

    Problem is solved. If anyone finds this is interested, the problem was at the level of the material, that the 6008 has been connected. I'm covering, among other things, to a PIC Microcontroller. I just changed the oscillator on the PEAK, and inadvertently changed parameters parameters of the ADC as well. This caused the pin used as my reference voltage (connected to + 2, 5V output of 6008) to transform itself into a digital camera of output, a value of 0. This short-circuit the + 2, 5V output of the 6008, causing it to close.

    Lesson learned: check your material carefully, even if it does not make the difference in a first time!

  • USB HUBs in Windows 7 has stopped working

    All devices connected to a USB 2 HUB worked until today on Windows 7 Pro System.  Uninstall and re install installs the device in the field "Other devices" without a pilot.  When I select Generic USB hub to the installation, it is not recommended.  Installation in any way will result in failure: Code 31.

    Hi John,.

    Thanks for posting your question on the forum of the Microsoft community.

    I would like to know some information about the problem so that we can help you better.

    What was the reason to uninstall and reinstall the USB hub?

    I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

    Method 1:
    Run this Microsoft fixit and check if that helps.
    Reference:
    Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows
    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/hardware_device_problems

    If this does not help, then use method 2.

    Method 2:
    I suggest you uninstall and reinstall the USB controllers and check the issue.

    Use Device Manager to uninstall and reinstall all USB controllers. This allows controllers to recover the port USB of his condition does not respond. USB controllers represent the USB ports in Device Manager.

    To uninstall and reinstall the USB controllers, follow these steps:

    a. Click Start, type Manager of devices in the search box of start and press ENTER.

    b. develop a 'USB Bus controllers'.

    Note: You will need to scroll down to find this point.

    c. right-click on the first controller USB under "In Bus USB controllers" and then click "Uninstall" to remove it.

    d. repeat the above steps for each USB controller that is listed under 'USB Bus controllers'.

    e. restart the computer. After the computer starts, Windows will automatically check for changes on the hardware and reinstall all USB controllers that you uninstalled.

    Now, check the USB device to see if it works.

    I hope this information helps.

    Please let us know if you need more help.

    Thank you

  • can you tell me why the mouse on my laptop has stopped working?

    Can you tell me why my mouse stopped working and how to make it work again. Thank you

    If it is the synaptics mouse device you have installed there are a lot of questions similar to yours... I had a wireless mouse at the end of the account and use that now that I could not fix the problem... but... you accidentally pressed the FN and F7 as that often disables the device! (depending on the machine)

    Go to the hardware and peripheral control panel... and you should see several options under devices and printers... mouse option should be there... enter this option and see if you can solve the problem... good luck.

  • keyboard on my printer hp officejet j6480 all-in-one laptop has stopped working

    I can't enter the fax number or change the number of copies to print. Need suggestions for this problem.

    Hello

    To reset the printer in some cases, this might work.  With the printer, unplug the power supply from the wall and disconnect the power to the printer.  Wait 60 seconds and then reconnect power.  Reset the printer and must go through the starting sequences.  See if this reset helps.

    Currently, HP has some offers on hp.com for new printers, or even go to Staples, Best Buy or Costco.  If you call HP Shopping sometimes they have specials going.  Here is the link to HP Shopping if the reset does not help you.

  • The webcam on my Advent laptop has stopped working / is no longer there

    Can someone help me? When I was using Skype, the image had gone, I tried to get it back, but it seems that my built-in webcam no longer works or is not on my system more. It seems to have disappeared completely, and any program that would normally use it tells me that I don't have a webcam. I am running Windows 7 on a laptop Advent. (Two years)  It is not a problem of Skype as my destop PC runs the program normally.

    Hello

    Have you tried contacting ADVENT to see if there is a known issue with this laptop?
    There may be a setting in the BIOS of the computer that controls the web cam.
    Alternatively, you can miss a compatible driver.
    Or it is possible that the webcam is down.
