Computer Doesn't Recognize Any Device Plugged Into USB Ports
Nov 17, 2012
Anything that I plug into the usb ports isn't recognized on my computer. When I plug something in, my computer doesn't make the usual "bloomp" sound and nothing pops up. When I search for my usb in my computer, it's not there. My computer acts like I didn't plug anything in.
I recently purchased the Phillips Universal USB from Amazon for my mp3 player; my previous one broke and now I have no way of hooking it up to my computer and putting new music on my mp3. The problem is when I plug in the usb the computer does NOTHING, nothing pops up. Nada. When I plug in other usbs they seem to work fine so I'm not sure what the problem is. What can I do to fix this?
I bought a new MP4 from ebay, and it came with a usb cable, however when I plug the usb cable in to my computer, it will not find the device. It will only charge.
so every time i turn on my computer there's a black screen and all these words pop up and one that caught my eye was the one that said keyboard error or keyboard not detected. Which was really strange I thought it was the batteries so i changed them twice and i kept turning it off and on i'm using a logitech mk710 keyboard and i tried everything nothing's working my computer doesn't turn on only that black screen shows..
My computor was in sleep mode. A kid pressed the button on top and it shut down. When started the welcome screen came up but will not accept password ?
My computer doesn't recognise my password anymore. I can't reset it. I'm locked out!What's more, the arrow to the left above the Enter Key and the Delete key are adding dots in the password box instead of deleting them.
I have a Windows 7 Disc that I've used in the past, but I'm planning on building a new rig in about a month or two and I'm just planning a little bit. So my problem is that my computer doesn't seem to recognize my CD during the boot. It use to ask me press a button to boot from CD but no longer does and but I can run the CD after my computer has booted to my desktop so that means It can't be the CD nor the CD drive correct? I do have the boot order set for the CD-ROM first.
I connected my USB Microsoft LifeCam to my computer and it worked fine for a while. Today I tried using it and the computer says that it does not recognize the device. I never even disconnected it and it stopped working. I tried reinstalling the drivers and I reconnected it a bunch of times, but it still gives me the same error.
I was running windows seven and my HD started failing so I bought a new one and had it shipped in. After recieving it today I backed up my old HD on to a My Passport I had lying around created my repair disk and set out to restore my new blank HD. When I got to the startup and repair menu I clicked restore from image and my computer scanned and could not find an image to restore from. The external is plugged in and I can see the backup files when it gives me the option to look for drivers but it wont recognize the external to let me load the files from it.
I've been getting really annoying sounds while playing CS:S that freezes the screen for half a second.. It sounds like the device plugged in / device removed sound.. and it happens randomly. It even happens when I'm not playing any games. I don't have any USB devices that are plugged in except for my USB mouse.
dell xps gen 4 running windows 7 (32 Bit)after downloading the latest windows updates, front and back USB ports no longer recognize the USB devices that were plugged in before. The usb device drivers no longer automatically load. usb ports recognize unknown device but device does not function (USB wireless Keyboard/ mouse or external hard drive) I deleted last few updates, re-booted computer and still get same result.
A few days ago I noticed that my PC is slow unlike before. I can not run any games, I can not access NVidia Control Panel and when I check "Display" on dxdiag it does not show the device information. I went to device manager trying to disable/enable the graphic card but it told that the graphic card is turned on but that there are issues because of which the graphic card is not working properly. I tried uninstalling drivers with driver sweep and through device manager. BIOS happen to be alright and also I checked if it's plugged in correctly several times and it is. I really don't know what caused this or when.When I right click on desktop and go to Properties>Settings, there's usually graphic specs written above the resolution bar but now it doesn't show any. It happens to be that my graphic card is unable to use any resources.

My problem began when someday i had issue in my windows which was usb was not recognized as i tried putting 3 usbs but all of them didn't work and i have 2 usb ports in my laptop which is dell xps 15z so i don't think it is a hardware issue My problem continued and i searched and searched the internet for solutions but no one really worked so i decided to format the windows and installing new clean windows 7 one, and i did so and after installation i had too many more problems knowing that i installed all the required drivers needed for the laptop and checked them with driver genius, now any usb i plug in isn't even sensed by the lap or self installed like the usb ports have no drivers or anything.I tried the wireless mouse which isn't sensed on another laptop and it installed and worked instantly, so where is driver software installation which should install the mouse automatic?
Whenever a USB device is plugged into my laptop (any of the USB ports), the CPU usage goes way up. It stays up even when the device is then unplugged, and the only way to bring it back down is to either reboot, or to go into "sleep" (when Windows resumes the problem is gone).
The Windows 7 resource monitor indicates that the problem is System Interrupts - Deferred Procedure Calls and Interrupt Service Routines. I have updated my drivers for each thing, and that has not helped. Not has lots of Google searches on this problem.
Running Windows 7 Home Professional 64 bit, on a Toshiba Portege R705-P41.
I have Kingston 2GB DataTraveler (DT) and windows 7 RTM 64bit does not recognize it when pluged into 2 front usb ports or 2 top back usb ports. Other 6 lower back ports work. I have Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3 mobo. This mobo has 8 usb on the back and 2 usb headers. One header is used for Codegen 7in1 cardreader+1usb port, other is used for 2 front panel usb ports. Few things ive noticed:
1) my old apacer mp3 player works on all usb ports.
2) most of new higher capacity usb's are not recognized in those malfuncioning ports
3) if i plug DT into Codegen's USB port, DT is then recognized on all ports
I've read this thread, tried instaling new Intel's Infs, tried removing all usb devices exept Codegen's. No effect. Any suggestions for my case?
When I try to use something on Internet Explorer that requires Flash, it always says "Flash Version 9.0 or greater is required.." But I always keep my Flash updated. Right now, it's Flash Player 11.
I assume I have a hardware problem with my DVD RW DRIVE (E) and will have to spend money to fix it or most likely replace it, but when i insert a cd into it i can hear the noise of what sounds like the driver trying to read the cd but thats it... nothing else happends. I have a dell M1330 XPS (5yrs old) using Vista 32bit. The drive is MATSHITA DVD +-RW UJ-857G ATA and its status is "This device is working properly." (which i certainly take issue with).
i just installed win7 64-bit. i have a core i5 with 8GB RAM. the computer doesn't seem to recognize all 8GB. it says there is only 4GB installed. i thought that win7 could go way beyond the 4GB limit of vista. does anyone have any suggestions on how i can get my pc to recognize and utilize all my RAM?
another thing i noticed, is that win7 seems to run my GPU (Nvidia gtx 260) hotter. its running at idle with limited apps at ~38 C compared to vista which ran at 33-35 C. anyone know why win7 runs "hotter" than vista? i thought it was supposed to be more efficient?
get my Windows 7 64 bit PC to reconize my HTC Inspire cell phone. What happens is when I plu it in to any USB port I get an pop up error "USG Device Not Recognized" and looking at my device manager/Serial Bus Controllers it says "Unknown Device". I uninstalled every controller and restarted PC and they re installed and still get the same error. I installed the HTC driver from their web site and still same error. Whats odd it doesn't work on this PC but works on my other laptop.

For a while now, I've had problems with USB devices, but today I was looking online and someone mentioned a solution to a problem I was having, saying to look in Device Manager under the Ports tree.My Ports tree in DM is gone, but I also don't know how to access my COM3 port or other ports any other way. Should the Ports tree be there? I've already restarted my computer and entered the BIOS menu, and it said my USB Ports were enabled.I've already been to the Registry Editor in Blah-Blah key and entered "3" (was already that way).My ports are just gone. What should I do?
I have a first generation envy 14 running windows 7 HP. Ports (COM and lpt) were showing up and working fine up until I reformatted the computer. I then noticed that they were gone. I installed all the drivers for my machine, most notably the chipset drivers, from the HP website. I enabled "show hidden devices" in device manager. I reformatted again, including trying windows 8 beta, and then back to 7.
I went through the bios to look for an option to turn ports on or off, and couldn't find it. So I updated to the latest bios and checked again, including finding a way into the advanced menu. I'm at a loss now... its like the ports don't exist?
I have been using my WD External Hard Drive in my new Windows 7 desktop. Everything was working fine until this morning, my external HD stopped responding. Everytime I connect external HD to my desktop, I get " You need to format the disk H: before you can use it".
I've tried changing the drive name as well but with no success.
