Hi tony eden,.
I suggest that you try the methods mentioned below and check if that helps.
Method 1: Uninstall and reinstall the USB controller
(a) click Start, type devmgmt.msc in the start search box, and then click Enter. Device Manager opens.
(b) expand Bus USB controllers.
(c) right-click the first USB controller under Bus USB controllers and then click on uninstall to remove it.
(d) repeat for each controller USB is listed under Bus USB 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.
Check the USB device to see if it works.
Method 2: Follow the steps in the section provided below.

Qosmio F30 does not recognize USB devices
My new Qosmio F30 does not recognize USB devices. Displays Device Manager USB ENHANCED CONTROLLER and ROOT HUB works fine, but the machine still wants to install each device but cannot. BIOS version seems to be V1.30. I tried the devices on other machines, and they work fine.
Is there something that I missed?Hello
Before your shot the beautiful F30 can you please say what OS you are using?
Did you use the OS from the Toshiba restore CD?
On this CD, all drivers must be preinstalled and you don t need to install no matter what chipsets or anything like that. -

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:

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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

Satellite L50 - B suddenly does not recognize USB devices
Suddenly my laptop does not recognize any USB.
The USB key or external hard drive works on other computers, but not on my laptop.
Only cards SD-are recognized.I tried to remove the usb portals on the Control Panel, but after I restarted my computer all returned.
One reappear with a caveat that it does not work, but when I search a new program to run it, it can not be found. After removing it, it comes back with the same caveat.I also tried to download the new discs (chip set utility) but who doesn't either.
I don't know what else to do.Can someone help me if I can access my USB-products once again on my laptop?
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 portsIn 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.

Satellite L300D will not recognize USB drive, except if the WIFI is disabled
I have a venerable L300D Satellite under Vista SP2. I also have a Fujitsu 40 GB SATA HDD of my old laptop in a USB2.0 caddy, with double USB plugs to require more current.
I can sign in successfully caddy USB to my laptop Windows 7 via a simple USB port on a USB 2.0 so I know it works.
On the Satellite L300D, it implements the Generic USB drive in Device Manager, but does not record the 2 disk partitions in the storage of files in Windows Explorer. In fact when you try and expand the COMPUTER in the Explorer it times out.
I noticed that the WLAN (Realtek TL8187B) is on the same USB 2.0 controller, so I disabled it. It turned off my wireless, but immediately the Windows Explorer was shot in life and I could access partitions (D:, and G :) may even run the check disk (no failures) and Defrag. As soon as I turn ON the WLAN driver disc fails to register.
I've updated the Realtek drivers on the Toshiba web site but I want a solution that allows me to use the disc AND the WIFI network at the same time.
Someone at - it ideas?
Hello Colin
Have you started using your laptop with the original version of Vista that you got with your laptop?
I use Toshiba laptops for a long time now but I've never noticed this issue although I use external hard drives and USB keys quite often.
Since when did you notice this kind of behavior? To be honest, I can't imagine that this problem persists since the day where we as original recovery image is tested and something like that should not happen. Maybe some updates may be responsible for this.Trying to remove driver WLAN, reinstall the chipset driver and reinstall WLAN driver. After doing this test he has once again please and send feedback.

Does anyone have a solution to our problem?
USB-6251 is not recognized (detected) in MAX but is detected by the Windows 7 Device Manager.
Is our configuration: Windows 7 (64-BIT), DAXmx 9.3.0f2, MAX 4,8 and USB-6251 (S/N 12B647A. P/N 194929 D - 04 L)
We had a 'ready' indication/led the 6251.
We tried several things... (all do not work)
1. we have installed DAQmx 9.3 (for Windows 7)
2. clean MAX Database by the following
http://digital.NI.com/public.nsf/WebSearch/86256F0E001DA9FF86256FFD005B827C?OpenDocument
Michael B.
Yes the 6251 appears as a DAQ hardware. Device charger OR placed in the auto-start services window. We have refreshed MAX.
Success! I had to manually start the device loader. Even if the service has been set to autostart, it did not work. Right-click on the service shows that the beginning was selectable. Click Start and the service began. Start to MAX and can now see the device. Open the front panel.
How does the monitor devices OR running in the interface of the status bar to the device loader service?
I don't understand why the service was not working. Is it a security issue? I am logged in as administrator. I'll try once again as a normal user.

I was printing on Epson Hot Press natural as I have done several times before. I opened the file to print in LR and then exported to PS CS6 for printing. Before that I had changed from black to black on the printer Epson matte photo. When I tried to print, using the correct profile, the correct printer for fine arts before, just like many times before, I received a message that the correct black ink was not installed. This has happened several times, if in frustration, I reset the black ink picture and then return to MK. Same result, same error message. Finally, I just saved the file in LR and went the print module. Printing went as it should. Why PS fail to recognize the ink, I chose in my printer and LR be able to do?
There is a difference I see. Premium presentation matte paper is the media type of Lightroom. There is the natural choice of Hot Press in the fall down, but not what I had selected. Impression came out fine.
Mystery solved. When I dug deeper into the PS, the printer settings dialog boxes, I discovered this:
I just did not penetrate quite deeply. I HAD recently done a few quick glossies. I just assumed that when I turned on the printer with inks it would be picked up in the world.
Thanks for your time!

Go to your Start Menu > Accessories > system tools > system restore.
Select a point of dated system restore to before the problem started happening and then restore your system at this point. During the system restore, you can restore the configuration of your system and you will not lose any personal data, the system restore affects only your configuration.
After doing the system restore you don't like something that has changed on your system, you can "undo" the restoration of the system.
If the system restore is not an option for you, or System Restore does not resolve the problem, you can take the measures put forward in the Microsoft Knowledgebase article below:
