    Hello:

    Looking at your other posts it seems that you have yourself painted in a corner.

    Since there is no inheritance or the setting USB auto in the BIOS, your only option would be to remove the hard drive, then put it in a USB drive enclosure sata hard laptop, plug in another PC so it can be read, download the drivers there, you need and copy to you user profile on the hard drive removed.

    Chapter 5 maintenance manual provides the procedures of withdrawal and replacement for the hard drive.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c03733656

    Reinstall the hard drive, run the drivers, and you should be good to go.

    These would be the drivers you need for your model...

  • My computer will not read usb flash drives or recognize the iphone using windows xp

    How can I get my computer to read usb flash drives or recognize iphone using windows xp both can be played on other computers, but not this one.

    Hi Nate53,

    ·         You have the latest drivers installed for the computer?

    ·         Have you tried to connect the player to different ports on the same computer?

    Check to see if the following is useful.

    Method 1: Try to reinstall the USB controllers and check if it helps.

    a. click the Start button and then right click on my computer. Click on properties.

    b. click on the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager. Expand the Bus USB controllers section by clicking on the sign «+»

    c. each of the devices under the USB controller section uninstall by right-clicking on each one, then click on uninstall.

    d. close Device Manager, and then restart your computer. Windows XP re - automatically installs the USB controllers in your computer, so you don't have to do anything further. Your computer is now running properly USB devices.

     

    Method 2: Log on to the manufacturer's Web site and update the latest chipset drivers and other updates to the device driver.

    See the following article:

    If the hotfix does not fix the problem... it is possible that your

    Best perhaps is to buy an external drive that is SDHC

    They go bad sometimes. Try these:

    Control Panel - Device Manager - hard disk - drive SD card or similar - double click - tab driver-
    Click on update drivers (this likely will do nothing that MS is far behind the certifying drivers) then right click
    following the UNINSTALL.

    Now bring the controllers USB - right click - UNINSTALL everything in category one at time EXCEPT
    the category itself - REBOOT. This will refresh the USB driver stack.

  • Computer does not read USB drives

    original title: USB keys

    Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    Ideas:

    • my new laptop does not read a USB

    What happens when you insert the USB - anything?  He make up a menu of options or give you any error messages or anything like that?

    If you go to start / computer use you see the USB it?  If so, double-click it to open it.  If this isn't the case, read on.

    Go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / computer management / disk management and see if you can see the USB it.  It cannot be listed with a letter, but it may still appear.  If it is there, please post any information on this subject, he said EXACTLY Word for Word.  If she's not here, it is not really considered by the system.

    You have an another USB, you can try in the machine to see if she had somethiing to do with the stick rather than the PC?  You have another PC on which connect the stick to see if it works on another computer.  Have you ever used this front USB on any computer or is it new?

    You have all other USB devices connected to your system and they work well?  If this isn't the case, you have a USB mouse or other device, you can test on the computer to see if it works (if we exclude a problem with the USB ports or USB drivers).

    To be honest, as it is a new computer, I would contact the technical assistance service and to ask for help they should be happy to offer because it is a new computer from the computer.  They may be able to help more of us because they know that their systems better than we do (and I don't even know the manufacturer of your computer, the USB key, or almost anything).  In some cases, to play with the system without contacting them can void the warranty and you certainly don't want to do.

    I hope this helps.  If not, please answer my questions and give me the results of the procedures I asked you to try (including contact with the manufacturer) and we will see where to go from there.

    Good luck!

  • WinXP not reading USB floppy during installation (F6). Cannot install the ACHI storage controller driver.

    I bought a 3000 N200 with Win Vista Basic. His is not illegigble for a decommissioning of the plant, but apparently it's possible.

    At the beginning of the XP installation after you press F6, everything seems very well, that the floppy drive is read I can select the appropriate driver and program installation continues...  Drunk when the installer is ready to copy files to the hard drive, Setup stops and asks the "Intel Matrix Storage Manager" diskette in the A: drive.    The thing is that the drive is still in the floppy drive. It's as if the USB floppy drive is not connected.  What's wrong?

    I've done the disk several times different. I unplug it and re - insert the USB key.

    I can't disable the ACHI and run the XP installation very well, but the ACPI driver (or something like that) is installed.  Later, during the loading of software the program WinDVD from the Lenovo Web site does not recognize the manufacturer and stops.

    Help, please...

    nLite is my Savior. I've not finished installation, but once the installation program only is complaint not only no hard drive was present, I think that I am free to hone. I just included the AHCI driver in nLite with the chipset drivers and it seems to work...

    Later I'll post the final verdict...

  • 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.
