CMI8738 Sound Only Works Through Front Jack, Not Rear Ports
My CMI8738 sound card only transmits sound through the front jack (headphone jack on the front of my computer case) since installing Win7 RC 64-bit (interestingly enough, I had the opposite problem in XP 32-bit: only the rear jacks worked and the front port had no sound).

I'm pretty sure this issue has more to do with the 64-bit than the actual OS I'm running. Unfortunately, I can't seem to locate any drivers that give me sound through the rear port. On XP, my sound card came with an application that gave me some sound configuration options, but the installation won't run for me on my current OS.

Does anyone know of anything I can try to get sound to come from the sound jacks on the back of my computer case again?

Dell USB Card Reader Not Working Properly
I have a Dell XPS Studio 435T that was running Vista Home Prem. 64 bit.

My card readers were labeled G:, H:, I:, and J: and were there when I got the machine. C: and D: are the Dell Vista Home Prem. 64 bit OS and the Dell Restore partition, E: and F: are my DVD drives. These drives always appear.

The system was built early May and was the A07 BIOS.

When I needed to read an SD card, I plugged the card into the proper slot, nothing happened? Discovered the drive was NOT on Explorer nor COMPUTER desktop icon when double clicked. I have a Canon printer with card slots, put the card in the printer after I turned it on and I can read the card, so it isn't the card (unless the 435T's slot can't read 8GB SD cards).

I don't get any errors when starting the system and nothing apparent in the Event Viewer.

I called Dell figuring they'd be aware of this problem and have a suggestion. Wrong, they claim it isn't a common problem and is either a h/w problem or I 'did something' to the system that caused this. Suggested fix was to restore the system to the shipped state and I was not too happy about that.

The Rep. then agreed to get on my system and look at it. I showed him the drives and the Device Manager that had an 'Unknown Device' and that it had no driver. I showed him that when I tried to update the drive it said I had the correct driver. I deleted that device and then had Device Manager search for changes and it found the same 'Unknown Device'.

Now the Rep. thought I had a driver problem and proceeded to re-load the Intel Chipset drivers. I think I did replace those with more recent ones, but I let him. It installed INSTANTLY and the rep. said it meant I had the drivers installed... Checked the drives again, not there.

Next step as for me to shut-off the system and restart into the BIOS screen and RESET the BIOS to the factory default. OK, but when the system booted, didn't do anything for the problem.

Now the Rep. asked if I could open the case and check the cables to the reader bar. This was after he came back on-line after checking what to do next. By this time I decided I wanted to try something, I have a USB single card reader. I put the SD card into it and inserted it into the card readers USB connector. It found the device, although it didn't assign a drive? Put that same device into the USB connectors behind it and it had the same results but the Rep. was now convinced I had power to the card reader and wouldn't need to open the case.

I then used a real USB Flash drive, put that in the card bar and it worked and could be read (and the Rep. wanted to connect and open the flash drive to be sure, which I allowed).

So, the Rep. wants to REPLACE the h/w. From the reports I've seen, this is a waste of time. His response was he's never seen other reports of this failure and my only other choice is to restore Vista to the shipped state. So I OK'ed the h/w replacement.

I know I've seen the drives as recently as 2 weeks ago. I was surprised one day when I opened Explorer and saw additional drives and then determined they were the card slots. As suddenly as they appeared, a few days later they were gone.

Dell eventually replaced the device, cable from motherboard to it, and even the motherboard. In all cases, replacing that component had the card slots reappear on boot, only to disappear sometime later.

This had been ongoing since July when I first discovered the problem.

Only after I installed Win7 was the true problem discovered.

I had a random BSOD under Vista with DVD Flick. Not often, but it happened. All I had to do was re-boot and it worked fine. Assumed it was a memory problem.

After installing Win7 and booting after a BSOD from DVD Flick Win7 reported a USB device was not working properly and showed a list of USB devices. The suggestion, unplug and re-plug the device and if it didn't fix it, replace the device. Well, looking in Explorer, the card slots were gone. Unplugged the cable and put them back in (case had to be opened to do this) and booted, problem was gone.

I've since removed DVD Flick and the problem has not come back.

So, the question is why wasn't the USB port working properly? I assume an initialization problem, and I see a HOTFIX was just released for Nvidia systems with 4GB's of memory and USB devices stop working so I wonder if the USB drivers could be at fault here?

All USB Ports Have Stopped Working
(I'm not sure if this is right forum, I'm sorry if it's not. I'm new here and the system does NOT make it easy to find out where these things should go. So I figured since I had Windows7 that I would put it here. Sorry if this is wrong.)

I bought a NexxTech2 USB 2.0 4-Port Hub a few months ago. Since then everything has been fine. Until no, suddenly the hub has stopped working and Windows7 keeps telling me:

 "USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned., and Windows does not recognize it."

And THE ONLY advice Windows7 can give me is to replace the device! Then problems got worse. Suddenly my 320 GB SimpleTech external hard drive stopped working. Then my mouse stopped working, then my keyboard, then my Printer. These devices aren't even connected to the hub! Now none of my USB ports work!

I know alot about computers, but not USB ports or drivers. Is there any solution to this other than replacing my devices?! I can't just replace my printer, external drive, mouse, keyboard! Almost all of my files are on my external drive and I needed then several hours ago.

Usb Ports Completely Stoped Working
Not to long ago i had downloaded and installed windows 7 beta to my hp elite desktop and it seemed to work very good it was slightly faster than vista which was on it before but im also a gamer and have about 4 games on it and usually play with my 360 controller thruogh the usb port. Well while it was installing the driver for the controller it all the sudden stoped and said usb device unpluged so i jus said whatever and jus treid to use the keyboard and mouse but noticed my keyboard wasnt working so now i was thinkin great what now.

I tried all the usual things to get it to work even unistalling all the usb ports then restartin to let them reinstall to actually payin $40 for a pci usb card witch none of these things worked not even the new card witch was very agrivating cos it seemed to work for a few other people on some different forums. So my next step was to contact microsoft and let them know what my situation was and well they said they werent responsible for it and duh like i didnt know im the one that chose to install it this person acted like i was blaming them when all i asked was if there was a way to resolve my problem like maybe an update or somethin and thats the only thing i got from that dumb fckr witch was retarded.

so i sent another email sayin the same thing and a different person told me to look at the forums and said there most likely is a solution around but without finding one i decided to post this and i am new to this so forgive me if this is the wrong area for this post im also new to computers all i want is my pc to work good again i had to buy this dell labtop jus to find a solution because my internet is thruogh a usb modem.

And i forgot to add not one usb port works all of them in the device manager have the exclimation sighn.

USB Malfunction / Ports Stop Working
i have a problem with my USB under windows 7 64 bit. Whenever i seem to do any intense activity that is using USB the USB ports stop working. When i say intense activity, i mean copying over a large file to a jump drive or external drive, burning a DVD on external DVD drive, etc. My game controllers, mouse, and Mic headset all work fine and don't cause the USB to malfunction.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks. i have reinstalled my motherboard drivers and aside from that i have no clue what else to do. I did not have this problem under XP.

KVM USB Ports Not Working With Win 7 64 Bit Enterprise
I have a four port KVM managing two computers. The USB ports for devices like printers aren't working for the Windows 7 box but they work just fine on my XP machine hooked up to the KVM. This tells me it is an issue with my Windows 7 box and not the KVM itself. When I plug the printer into the KVM USB port, Windows 7 makes the sound like it is adding a device. 

However, no message pops up about installing the driver and no printer shows up in the control panel. Additionally, when I try to manually add the printer Windows 7 does not see the USB001 port like my XP box does. Uninstalling/re-installing the USB host controllers via the device manager doesn't work either. Does anyone have any suggestions?

All Programs Not Working Properly
I am having problems with all the programs I have tried thus far. Both Firefox and IE crash after a couple of minutes use, as does iTunes, Windows Media Player and I also tried Elder Scrolls: Oblivion as well.  All 'stop working' and the computer returns to dektop.

I am running Windows 7 RC x64.

AMD X2 Not Reporting Or Working Properly
Ok, this is going to seem odd. Installed 7.7000 32 and have had no problems, until last night when I realized something was amiss. In the task manager, (and performance monitor) the system is only reporting one core. I installed amd's cpuinfo and it too says that there is only one processor (0) on the system.

To make matters more confusing, the Device Manager says there are indeed two instances of the AMD X2 5000+ Processors installed and working properly. I tried to do a quick "upgrade drivers online" but it just reported that everything was fine. AMD's website doesnt seem to have any drivers (other than for XP/2003 x64).

I thought 7 was supposed to handle mutlicore better, but am i missing something?

CD/DVD Drive Not Working Properly
Windows 7 seems to freeze and crash when I input a CD or a DVD in my Dual-Layer CD/DVD RW-drive. I've checked the drivers, which windows update says is up to date, and tried with lots of different CDs and DVDs, just to check if the disc in question was broken.

This is really problematic as I dont have a spare DVD drive anywhere. Anyone else had this problem? If so, how did you fix it/did you fix it?

Dvd Player Not Working Properly
I installed Windows 7 yesterday, and for some reason, my dvd player isn't working correctly.

I checked the drivers, and it says they are up to date. Not that I can find any for download anywhere though. I have a Sony Optiarc DVD-RW AD-7203S, if that helps.

This is what it says on the device manager, "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52)". I don't think this is the doing of a virus, since I've scanned my computer twice and not found anything.

Is this something I can fix or do I need to install Vista again?

Brightness Tuning Not Working Properly On HP 6735s
Fresh install of Windows 7 64 bits on a HP 6735s computer with AMD X2 and ATI  Radeon HD 3200.

No problem for installation.

Tuning of the screen brightness is hazardous. It does not work much of time, every time I try to put the brightness to the maximum it returns to the low value.

But after a while ( a few minutes, about 15 ...) it seems to work: brightness comes up to maximum !

Any idea ?

Start Search Programs And Files Not Working Properly
Its been happening ever since I installed Windows 7.

For example, When I click Start, type "CC" in the search box, the Start menu displays what I intend to start (CCleaner) but when I press enter I get this:

Its acting completely wierd!

On top of that, when I right click the entry, I get a menu which is expanded towards the left awkwardly.

I also recall that I have unchecked "Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties." in the properties of my Windows 7 boot drive.

And since the programs are installed there, I think the problem might be related.

I have checked it again but it dosen't have any effect!

Ethernet Ports Have Stops Working
Normally I am connected wireless to the internet, but sometimes I need to connect wired to the internet.

Last time I did this all was OK (not sure when this was, but it must have been a few weeks ago.).
Now a few days ago, I needed to use my wired connection again and it is not working anymore (It does work on my laptop with Windows XP). The light of the ethernet ports on my motherboard are not blinking anymore.

They do blink when I pull out the large power cable from my motherboard, put it back in. Start my pc. But they stop blinking during the black Windows 7 screen with the colored cubes.

In device manager all seems OK. The two ethernet adapters are there without any errors.

I have the following motherboard: Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6.

With the following ethernet adapters on the motherboard: Realtek RTL8168B/8111B Famely PCI-E Gigabyte Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.0 Is there anyone with the same problem and has anyone solved it Does anyone know which driver update/ hot fixes (from microsoft) could have caused this?

ATI Mobility Xpress 200M Drivers Not Working Properly
I have an Acer Aspire 3650 laptop with an ATI Mobility Xpress 200M integrated video card. When Windows 7 automatically update the video drivers and reboot the system, I don't get video signal. I can connect my laptop to a LCD screen and get video, but at a very high resolution (something about 1440x???)

so I guess the drivers set my screen resolution too high to get any image on my screen. I tried changing the resoltion using that LCD screen but even setting it to 800x600 doesn't make my laptop screen to work. BTW, ATI beta drivers package doesn't seem to work...
Any ideas?

USB Driver Error - USB Ports Do Not Work
I'm not sure if any other specs needed to solve this problem.

I upgraded from vista 32bit to windows seven 32bit a few days ago, ever sense i have upgraded i have never been able to use any usb ports. i have went into the device manager and uninstalled and reinstalled the usb port drivers, they will start to work for about 30 seconds then will fail.

This is the error in the properties under usb port:
Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

I have installed my motherboards new drivers and bios for windows 7. also have updated windows and installed all major updates. I have been working on fixing this error for days now and i have had no success.

USB Ports Not 2.0
My USB ports on this Gigabyte mobo are SUPPOSED to be all USB2.0

So, how come I still get "This device can run faster" messages in

my Windows 7 64 bit home premium installation?? I went to Gigabytes webpage and installed the chipset drivers for Windows 7 on there, but still get the same message when I plug in my Corsair 4GB jumpdrive.

USB Problems / USB Ports
So I have had W7 installed for a little over a week, and I am having issues with my USB ports.  The only thing that has worked so far is my BlackJack phone, which Windows SAYS didn't install correctly, but works.  All USB drives, my camera, and other phone do not work.  I get a message at the bottom of the screen that says "Installing device..." then I get the report that it was not installed correctly.

I have tried three different USB drives, all of which would not install correctly and work.

This is very frustrating, and there is no reason something as simple as a USB drive would not work, yet a Cell Phone will connect.

Crash Of All USB Ports
First of all I would like to excuse for my rusty english... Passed some time since I last wrote something completely in english ;-)

I'm using the x86 version of Build 7000 and I'm very fascinated of how it works already in this beta-stage. But I have a strange crashing-issue from time to time that does not allow me further testing.

From time to time all of my USB-ports seem to block everything: my usb-soundcard stops working, my wireless-adapter, my external hd, everything that's plugged-in into an usb-port stops working.

It happens when I'm using my Soundcard, Videocard or both of them: playing games, watching DvDs, browsing youtube, listening to music, etc.

When I'm trying to reboot, the os will stuck in the logging-off-screen 'cause it's trying to play the logoff-sound over my soundcard..

USB Device Not Recognized, Only At 4/12 Ports
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?
