Trouble With Rear USB Ports
Aug 21, 2009
I'm having a strange problem with my mouse. This is the first wireless mouse I have ever used. At first I thought is was my mouse that was acting up. Now I am pretty sure it is my USB ports in the rear of the computer.
My problem is my mouse pointer stops moving constantly. It resembles a trashy ball mouse the way it stops moving with the exception that my pointer suddenly catches up with where it needs to be. During all this time I was considering the possibilities that it could be my mouse or a glitch in windows 7 build 7229.
A few nights ago for the first time my mouse quit responding. I was forced to check it out and try a different port. Non of the rear ports seem to work so I tried a front port. I did not have any trouble with the mouse on the front port. After a few hours I tried a different rear port and after a while the same thing started again. Now for the second time switching back to the front port without any problems.
I am curious if anyone else has had this problem. What do you think it could be?I realize this could be fixed in the Retail versions of Windows 7?
Maybe a driver update is needed.
Does this sound like a problem with the USB chip?
Could there be interference with my wireless network adapter?
I'm not really sure where to start diagnostics. I don't really want to pull my adapter if I can get out of it. What do you guys think?

I suddenly noticed no sound from the rear speakers. (5+1) W7 64.I have creative XI-FI elite pro. The creative test would give a faint garbled sound from the rear spekaers, so I know the wiring is connected. However in windows the test sounds are totally off. All obvious settings are as supposed to be.I did run combofix a few weeks ago, and then I made a windows system restore.

I cannot hear any sound from my PC, I tried connecting through both the front panel and the back panel to no avail.I however did notice that the only panel option available on Realtek HD seems to be the Realtek HD Audio rear output and that doesn't work.It's quite frustrating because I can't hear any sound from my computer even when I used a headphone.
1. how do I change from Realtek HD Audio rear output ie back panel to front panel?
2. is there anything else I should do?

I recently reinstalled Windows 7 and have since then not been able to use my speakers correctly since. It's important you know that they worked just fine a few days ago before I reinstalled. I did of course do a full format of the hard drive. When I'm configuring the speakers in Windows to 5.1, I'm not getting any feedback from the two rear speakers.My speakers are Logitech Z5500, motherboard Asus 880G Extreme3, sound card Creative SB X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Pro. Enabling X-Fi CMSS-3D doesn't do anything either but make the volume of the front speakers a bit lower to compensate for the supposed increased volume of the rear speakers. Which is non existent anyway.
I tried plugging the cables (I use analogue) into the on-board sound card's ports and had the same problem, which tells me it isn't a problem with the Creative sound card, but most likely something in Windows that I'm missing. Testing the speakers through the receiver works just fine. I have also tried removing the drivers I installed completely and reinstalled to see if it just was some installation error. I have also tried removing the on-board sound card drivers and disabling the on-board sound card in BIOS while trying to install the Creative drivers again. This shouldn't have worked anyway since I'm having the same problem with the two sound cards.

A few days ago I installed a USB 3.0 card (to be precise, this one: 2-Port USB 3.0 SuperSpeed PCI-E Controller Card - Free Shipping - DealExtreme). It uses the very common NEC PD720200 USB 3.0 controller. I installed the required drivers for Windows 7, and the card worked fine for the first day or so. but not since. Whenever I plug in a USB 3.0 external hard drive, I get a false "This device can perform faster..." message, as if I had plugged the drive in a USB 2.0 port.
The external drive I am using is a Western Digital MyBook Essential 1130. It is definitely a USB 3.0 drive, and came with the required USB 3.0 cable. While the USB 3.0 card was working, I got full-speed transfers to the limit of the hard drive's ability, about 90-100 MB/s. Now I can only get USB 2.0 speeds (33-34 MB/s). Windows insists I have the drive plugged into a USB 2.0 port even though it is plugged directly into the USB 3.0 card.
Things I tried so far: -rebooting and complete power cycle. No difference. -plugging the drive into one port or the other. Also no difference. -Looked in Device manager.The controller is recognized as a USB 3.0 device is using the proper NEC drivers.
Other info that may be important:
-No overclocking settings in use.
-I made sure the cable was plugged in all the way. It's in as far as it can go, but the ports will still only act like USB 2.0 ports.
I might as well throw the card away if it is only going to act as a USB 2.0 device.

I recently bought Creative A500 5.1 surround sound speakers for my PC. I then bought an internal sound card as i only had 2 speaker inputs on my pc, but then found out that my motherboard has only 1 PCI slot. So i had to buy an external sound card for the surround sound to work (this one) I connected it all up, put the wires in the correct places, but the rear speakers do not play any sound. I know they work, as I put the rear jack into the front output to test them. If I go into sound, then try to configure it to 5.1 I don't have the option to select rear speakers. (picture of what i mean) I can't go into enhancements to select fill speakers either as the tab isn't showing up in properties. And also, as I'm using an external sound card (USB), nothing shows up in Realtek HD audio manager, so I'm not able to do it from there.

I just purchased and install a Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio Card and downloaded from Creative the Win 7 drivers. Everything started to go fairly well. I configured for a Quadraphonic Speakers configuration. Tested sound, using Manage Audio Device, at all four speakers and I could hear the sound. However, when I used the Window Medial Player or any other player, no rear speakers sound can be heard.

I have a new pc with a Gigabyte GA-H67MA-UD2H-B3 motherboard and I plugged a Microsoft 600 Wired Keyboard into the rear port (designated for KB/Mouse by Gigabyte). The keyboard works in the BIOS, but when Windows 7 loads, the num lock light switches on, then Windows 7 says that "Driver not installed properly". In the Devices & Printers window, it shows an icon of the keyboard with a yellow exclamation mark and says "hardware not available". However, mouse continues to work. This happens in all the rear USB ports. If I plug the keyboard in the front port, Windows recognizes the keyboard, install the correct driver and it works! All the USB ports work fine otherwise (tested with thumb drive as well as mouse). I also tried with a Logitech K120 wired keyboard which also had the same problem.!!

This doesn't work. Very irritating.(I don't know if this RealTek sticky at the top of this forum is a solve for this, I'm not hot on registry changes and I'm not sure if this is a fix for this issue.)Firstly I have to turn off the front-panel detection in order for the front panel to be detected..?Secondly, I can't get the speakers to mute when the front phones are plugged in. I can do a manual switch from one to the other, but the front panel won't detect when things are plugged in.

I have loaded XP on my other pc like 3 times. The first time it lasted a while then started getting blue screens. Reloaded again, same thing. I recently tried again, but this time the system went to blue screen 3 days later. I did notice that after the last MS windows update was finished, it wanted a restart, then after the restart, it would never boot to the OS.
The pc just starts up and goes to the windows boot/splash screen and just keeps repeating itself. I am not sure what to do at this point. Could this be a sign of a bad HDD, or cd-rom drive, maybe the mo-bo?
Would be greatly appreciated if someone could help me with this problem! I do apologize if I should have posted this elsewhere, but am just desperate to get this pc running proper!

For a couple of weeks now, I've had these windows updates that wouldn't finish installing. I've been trying the recommended solutions that I could find but nothing really helps.
I've tried repairing the Microsoft .NET framework but it fails to repair for some unknown reason.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled it both manually and through windows updater, both failed.

So I recently built my first computer, and I was so excited it was going great, I installed all my drivers, and downloaded some of the software, steam, itunes etc. Anyway I will try to break this down to make this easier to follow,I stepped away while it was downloading LoL ,-I came back to see a screen saying Windows could not repair this computer automatically ,I performed some of the options, reverting to an earlier state, and even using the repair tool on windows itself,I then attempted to reinstall windows entirely, and I would just move some key files over from the Windows.old file,Instead my computer asked me to select which windows I wanted to run, after trying them both neither worked,-after surfing the internet, so I used the command prompt to clear my hard drive, I had figured I would just have to reinstall a few drivers and download some stuff no big deal,but instead my computer still prompts me to select one of two windows to run, again neither working,now installing off of the disk doesn't even finish

If your having an issue installing programs where you get the error, "windows installer has stopped working", go into your action center (the flag icon in the lower right corner of your task bar), click "change action center settings", then click "customer experience improvement program settings". Once in the settings, select "No, I do not wish to participate" and save your settings.

Sometimes when I try to click on a link, or if I save a link to my desktop, I get an error code when I try to access it that says "there was a problem sending the command to the program". The problem started after I suffered a system failure when installing Norton Internet security.
I have a Dell XPS 600 Desktop, 150 GB, 8 megs

I can't find a driver for this card. Im testing how fast Win 7 would be on an old rig, but can't get the required drivers for this.
I tried the vista drivers for this card, 96.85 i think, but doesn't work, system restarts, screen goes black, no signal etc.
Any ideas, help?

I have a Canon 3200F scanner which I can't get working on 7 RC 32-bit.
I have downloaded the driver from Canon, installed it and nothing really happened. I then discovered that I needed to install a WIA driver, which I downloaded. But when I try to install it 7 says it may not have installed properly.
The scanner now shows up on the import list under Photoshop CS4, but when I select it to import it then stalls for a short time then tells me it can't connect, and to check the leads etc.
Anyone got any ideas.

I just installed the latest Nvidia driver for Windows 7. I restarted and now have a black screen with the watermark in the lower right corner and a mouse pointer. How do I even roll back the driver? Should I hard shut down and try again?
Forgot about trying in safe mode...hope that does it.
Roll back in safe mode did it but I would be careful using these drivers for x64 Win 7. They say that's what they're for.
Edit more info: If you're looking at this...don't try to uninstall the driver that didn't work form "programs and features". It took ALL display drivers off my system and I went through hell again trying to get any display driver to work.

First start with explaining that I'm new to the forum and to some of the more in depth setup processes. I am currently trying to re-partition my hard drive in order to setup a dual boot. I have just installed windows 7 on the computer, not carrying over anything from the old OS.When I open computer management, it states that of the total 76,000 MB's of the single existing partition, only 1,413 MB's is available to be shrunk by.This is an insufficient amount for the second partition I require for the dual boot.Additionally, when I take a different approach and try to re partition from with in the OS that I am trying to dual boot with, it gives me a warning that the program (gparted) detected that the disk has at least 51 bad sectors when I unmount it.

I had an SSD that was 120 gig. I recently bought a larger 240 gig samsung SSD since I got a free copy of far cry 3 and my old SSD was nearly full.I used the program that came with the samsung drive to swap the data over.It had all the appropriate settings listed, and it seemed pretty straight forward. I attached the new SSD drive and had all the space on it listed as "unalocated" as the Samsung Wizard explained. I copied over the two partitions on the old drive over to the new Samsung. I then removed the old 120 gig drive and tried to boot with the new Samsung and the 1TB data drive that I had attached all along.I shut down, removed the 120 gig drive and moved the 240 over to the same sata cable that the 120 was on.When I tried to boot, it failed.A screen came up that offered to automatically repair the install, but it was unable.It looked like it would boot into this same error over and over. I used the boot manager thing on my mobo using the f8 key. I chose the Samsung SSD from the list and it offered up 3 choices.
1. Windows 7 premium
2. Windows 7 premium (recovered)
3. Windows 7 premium (recovered)
If I choose option 1, it repeats the same "unable to repair so lets reboot...."If I choose option 2, the computer boots normally, it looks exactly like before, and all is good. Till I reboot. I don't know where the 3 installs that its offers as options. I need a way to set it to always boot to the Windows 7 premium (recovered) install.

I have an external Toshiba cable modem -USB - attached to my computer for Internet access and I am using the Windows 7 Ultimate OS. I then have a Vista Ultimate 64 bit machine connected to a Wired Router. The Vista Machine can access the Windows 7 machine through this network but not the internet. In the Windows 7 Network dialog box it shows the External modem as a Home Network but it shows the Vista machine's ethernet card as a Public Network and it will not let me change this setting at all.

I am having a problem similar to what somebody else has posted here in the past. I have Windows XP Home on my Desktop and Windows 7 on the laptop. I have them both networked. I am able to view shared Desktop folders from the Windows 7 laptop with no problems, but when I try to view the shared laptop folders from the XP Desktop, it keeps telling me to type in a username and password. On the Windows 7 laptop, I have it set in the Network and Sharing Center to not require a password.
I originally had it set up as a homegroup, then changed it to a workgroup on the laptop, but the same thing happens. I also changed the Computer Name on the laptop, but I still have to type in a username and password on the XP Desktop. Once I enter the username and password, I can freely access the laptop. But once I restart either machine, however, I then have to type the username and password on the Desktop again.
Can anybody assist me with this matter?
