Windows recognizes most any USB device into a port any.

Hi, my problem started as my Logitech Wireless Mouse M187 has not been recognized by Windows7. A box came to say A key USB has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize... Initially, the problem disappeared when I turned off for a while, then restarted. Now 3 days later he's back. Windows doesn't recognize any device in any port. I tried my printer and modem mobile broadband with the same answer. I uninstalled all USB host controllers and restarted them but there is nothing. Any advice would be appreciated.

It looks like a hardware problem. Start by unplugging everything what is not necessary, leaving nothing but your keyboard, mouse and monitor. See if one of the ports work now.

It is quite possible that you encounter a heat problem. If this is a desktop computer, remove the side of the housing to blow any dust, animal hair, etc. that may be on the blades of the fan and the heat sink. Don't forget that there is enough space around it for good circulation.
If it's a laptop, use a can of compressed air to blow the dust of aeration.

Leave the PC turned off, for a good, sit while to make sure that it is at room temperature. Turn it on and immediately check the USB port. The device works as it should? Leave the PC on during some time and look at a port. If this does not work after warming up well, then you have certainly a hardware problem, probably the side power on the motherboard. You may have watched it professionally :-(

  • Windows recognizes only certain USB devices not

    Hello. I apparently have a common problem of Windows not to recognize certain USB devices (namely a flash drive and my iphone). I made sure that all Windows updates are up-to-date. The devices work on other computers and my internet USB Orange key still works so I know the actual port is correct. I tried to uninstall the USB mass storage, but he won during the process and still does not work. Any suggestions? These worked very well last month.

    I've recently upgraded to win 10 and now I have Lightroom CC opening every time I plug a USB key in my machine regardless of what is on the USB device.

  • Windows recognizes not all new devices...

    When I plug in a new device to my computer it not to be recognized, but the devices that have been recognized before work normally.

    Once I plug the new device, a message indicates that windows could not find the device driver appears immediately.when I open the Device Manager, that they appear as unrecognized devices. The same features are functioning normally to another laptop.

    of course, I tried to change the USB hub and restarted windows and then I ran a full system scan, then turned off the firewall and antivirus that I also ran that the laptop in safe mode, but the issue is not resolved.

    I have another problem, but don't know if it is related to this problem is that new updates are not installed, so when I restart the computer, it tries to install downloads happening to 30% then stops and comes back.

  • Windows 7 does not recognize FAT32 formatted devices / Windows asks you to format a USB device in FAT32

    I have a question about Windows recognizes only not USB devices formatted in FAT32.

    The biggest symptom is Windows asking to format any device that has FAT32 (indicates RAW file format in disk management. The format will fail unless NTFS is used (which is unacceptable for the SD cards used in cameras, etc.).

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P755 with USB 3 port and three USB 2 ports, running under Windows 7 64-bit. Type computer apparently and for most device type is not relevant to this subject after doing some extensive research.

    1. I tried SFC / SCANNOW with no result

    2. I uninstalled all the USB drivers and drivers of devices on SD card with no result

    3. I created a new profile and flies over my files with no result

    4. I searched the net and found a plethora of people having the same problem on several versions of Windows but not confirmed of the solution.

    5. I tried the fix for troubleshooting of hardware from Microsoft with no result.

    The devices I've used are pen drives, to several types of SD cards flash drives and external hard drives. These devices are confirmed to work on several other computers configurations in different windows. When formatted in NTFS all works but like I already said, SD cards will not work in the cameras etc. to NTFS.

    I think that the computer of wiping and again is not the problem. After researching, I discovered this problem has been around for many years and followed by Windows XP throughout Windows 8 forums and blogs that I read. I'm surprised Microsoft doesn't have a fix for this yet.

    Hello and sorry for the delay.

    I tried this before with the same results. My pen drives and large SD card worked until the problem occurred. Windows 7 has lost the ability to recognize the FAT32 devices.

    I think I found the problem, however. My USB key must have failed in some way. After checking all my media work properly on a free desktop running windows 7 64, I jumped into a thumb sansa player and that's when I started having errors on this computer as well. This time, no data survived.

    I went back to my laptop and formatted by a new copy of windows Professional 64-bit. The laptop works great and recognizes all FAT32 media I throw at it. I do not use the USB key suspect for fear that it might cause problems again.

    And so far so good a few weeks later. Everything works great. I used FAT32 media without any problem. I'm sure it was the reader. I guess that he worked at masked the fact that it was the cause of the problems. Strange that this would produce windows FAT32 to reject.

  • Handspring Visor is a "unrecognized USB device" for Windows XP

    Hello World-

    I feel as if I have a career to synchronize my PDA hot! I used to hotsync regularly on my old HP Windows 98 machine, and now that I have this new (er) eMachines Windows XP Pro system, I got nothing but heartache. Here's the situation:

    My Visor Deluxe runs Palm OS 3.1H3, apparently the latest version which will work with it. The computer is running Windows XP Pro SP2. I have hotsync a few times when I got to the computer, but it has never been reliable. Now I surely CAN NOT synchronize! When I press the button on the cradle, Windows hotsync ALWAYS reports, "USB device not recognized" and of course the visor says he couldn't make contact with the office.

    HotSync manager is running (I have the blue and red arrow on the taskbar icon), and if I look at the Device Manager when I try to sync, is apparently trying to get the driver, he simply painted the same list. The list does NOT include the Palm, Handspring or unknown devices.

    I followed the directions "clean uninstall" I found on this forum and re-installed Palm Desktop 4.01. That worked once a week or two ago, but now when I arrive at the end of the installation, when I'm supposed to hot sync, I get the error not recognized USB.  I even tried to install Palm Desktop software version 6.2, but which ended up in a mess - I was getting errors like "Ordinal 23 could not bewildered because of the trajectory messed up', or words to that effect... I think it's ok for XP, but not "peripheral" as my trusty old visor :-)

    I know I should try to use the same configuration on another computer to be sure that the visor is ok, but I don't have access to another machine; In addition, the PDA has no other wierdness. Soft resets do nothing, but I don't want to try a hard reset until I get everything synced to the top! I am at my wit's end and don't know what else to try. I tried both my cribs and a number of different USB connections both at the front and the back of the PC. The USB hardware in the computer seems to be fine with everything else - mouse, camera, mp3, flash drives. I'm beginning to suspect that I need to plug with USB 1 and these are 2 USB, but I don't know how to check either of these things, or how "throttle" in the case, I have to use the USB as soon as possible.

    Thanks in advance to everyone that these figures. I'll be very grateful to have everything works again.

    Gary Benson

    I was with you until the end. I hate to ask, but could you clarify this just a little:

    Then, reinstall your Palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If she asks
    for a user name and you synchronized your device before you put "test" If you "
    no sync before creating a hotsync name.

    Ok. I read three "if" statements, and try to understand what is meant here. If they ask you a user name AND if I synced before, AND if I do not synchronize before creating a hotsync name, I put in 'test '. Means I can't use the name I used for this camera? Or are you suggesting that, really, should I open Palm Desktop and create the username before I hotsync for the first time (after the new installation)?

    I * have * synchronized before, and I don't plan to sync until everything is set up right, which to me should mean that Palm Desktop is ready with a username to match your handheld.

    Also, these indications seem in conflict which advised you to in the first paragraph, where you said:

    When you install Palm desktop, skip the hotsync process and complete the installation. After installation, adjust the conduit in hotsync manager for handheld overrides desktop, then synchronize with PC. During the connection process, it will ask you a username, enter the same username which is located in the upper right of the screen on your handheld hotsync.

    It * seems * that what you say I have to do is:

    (A) clean uninstall - move data to safe places, uninstall, and then remove all traces of "Palm" and "Handspring" of the registry.

    (B) restart the computer.

    (C) install Palm desktop, but not hot sync again.

    (D) open Palm Desktop, add the user name (Tools/users) and set the lines for handheld overrides Desktop.

    (E) hot sync.

    Isn't it? Sorry to be so simple, but I want to make sure to proceed exactly right. Thank you very much for your reply and for your help.

  • Interfacing with several unknown USB devices; all producing NMEA strings

    Hi all

    Question about the peripheral USB interface and their associated drivers.

    I have the obligation to build an application that interacts with the USB devices that produce NMEA strings. I have the library to parse NMEA strings, but I fight with interfacing with several unknown USB devices. When deploying applications, I know not all possible USB devices to use.

    Is it possible to produce one driver who will accept any USB device strings?

    Or, more likely, is there a way to get the LV to recognize a connected USB device and automatically find / install the driver like windows does and is it possible to do in a deployed application?

    I had a trawl of the forums, but I've not found anything that specific.

    Thanks, I really appreciate the help.

    About the VI "set up the serial port", my problem is that the choice of COM port is in a separate menu (not directly related to the VI) and it allows all possible COM ports to be selected. That can be addressed.

    I am not expecting an all-in-one solution but asked the question in case it was possible.

    What I realized, is that for my specific condition to read strings from a USB device. It is likely to be sent over a serial connection. LV can handle this well and easily assuming the device has the installed driver / settings are available.

    LV (and indeed any other program) will not work without a device driver / settings. In this case, parameters set must be found (error) / a USB RAW driver would need to be developed. Devices requirng a RAW USB driver would need a serious review to continue due to the time and effort required. All this effort is work inherited from the AIDS to navigation

    I appreciate any help and I think I got the answer I was looking for! Thank you very much
