been facing a problem in the recent month, every 5-10 hours one (or all) USB port(s) just stop working, they drop out, and im forced to restart the pc (unsuccesfully), i have to hard reboot.I dont know what could be causing this, no virus's etc.
View 6 RepliesI have a Compaq Presario CQ62-215DX, running Norton Internet Security and firewall through Windows 7. I sucessfully installed new Wireless LAN and Lightscribe system software several days ago, along with the Live Essentials, Realtek and Windows 7 Updates. Everything was operating correctly yesterday, but when I booted up my computer today my wireless mouse refused to work. After trying a fix involving a USB stick, I realized that none of my USB ports work. The ports light up when I restart, until Windows 7 finishes logging in, and once it begins the drivers refuse to work. Is it because of the recent updates? Because I cleaned up my back-up copies?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an older Dell Inspiron 5100 that's been rock solid since day one. I recently transferred all my music from my PC to my Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex so I could organize my files while I was out of town on business. When I got to my hotel and plugged the Seagate into the USB port the laptop would not recognize it. There's two USB ports, one of the USB ports does nothing at all when I plug the drive in (not even a 'Ding-Dong' sound). The other port at least responds but still not recognized. By "responds" I mean Windows responds with a "Dunn..." sound; not the happy two tone sound of a device actually being recognized and available, just a "Dunn..."I've used this drive before on this laptop on several occasions so I know it's compatible. I also came home and plugged to drive back into the PC to see if the drive itself responds. It does, and all files are there and happy. Also, when plugged into the non-responsive USB slot the light on the drive blinks a couple times, the platters spool up for 15 or so seconds then goes out. When plugged into the other USB slot (the one that goes "Dunn...") the light comes on and stays on and the platters spin untill I unplug the device. But it's still not recognized.

View 1 Replies View Relatedi 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.
Toshiba Satellite A665. My USB ports work fine from startup, and can even work after waking from sleep mode. However, I notice that if I move my laptop to another location, my USB gets disabled. Occasionally, my mouse and other devices may receive power, but other times they may not even receive power. Either way, they are never detected anymore. I have already tried unplugging and replugging the devices to no avail, and I have also reinstalled all of the drivers.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently got a new power supply and video card for my computer. It has been working great but on accident one day I broke the plastic divider inside one of my usb ports so that one no longer worked and now my other usb port is not working. It will not recognize anything plugged into it and my phone can't even charge through it. It did the same thing a few days ago but it randomly started working again but now it isn't and I don't know how to get it back or make it stop. The usb ports on the back of the pc are still working though, my keyboard and mouse are plugged in through it and haven't stopped working once.

View 9 Replies View RelatedMy laptop has suddenly slowed down considerably. I've run eset online scanner and scanned with my antivirus Trend Micro Titanium and found nothing at all. I've tried running Ccleaner and using the registry cleaner. I've also tried defragmenting my hdd but nothing is working. Overall its is generally slow but alot of the time Windows explorer freezes and stops responding and needs restarting.I have an asus K55VD notebook with Windows 7 Home Premium SP 1, quad core i7 processor, 8gb ram, 2gb dedicated graphics and over 200gb of free space on my hdd. If it makes any difference I have windows 8 installed on a separate partition although problems didn't start when I installed it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedA 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 a USB to RS232 adapter (it works fine). My question is: How can find out which com port it is using, except by trying all of them and then finding the one that works. I have a older Thunderbird GPS 10 MHz frequency standard thet requires a RS232 interface to talk to it (for setup purposes). The first thing it askes me is which com port I'm using(1-16).

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.
First a little background:
System - Dell Inspiron 546, Windows 7 Home Premium x86 64 bit.
I'm an Engineer/Designer/Machinist and work with CAD/CAM programming. After I create the programs with the toolpaths for my CNC Macining Center I use a separate program to transfer the machine control data to the CNC.
Here is my dilemma - Win 7 is not compatable with the old 16 or 32 bit, file transfer program I had been using with XP and Vista. I have found 64 bit programs that are compatible but cannot get the computer and CNC to communicate.
The problem I'm having is, in the file transfer software I need to set the Parameters such a Comm Port, Baud Rate, etc. I cannot determine the port assignment for the usb connections. In XP and Vista they were Comm 4 and I could find that in Device Manager/Ports. Win 7 doesn't seem to have a listing for ports. How do I determine this.
I have five USB 2.0 hub successfully operating over 20 devices. As these fail I will upgrade to 3.0. Anticipating more 3.0 devices and a 3.0 motherboard in the future. Why do they only have four ports? If I am mixing 2.0 hub with 3.0 hub's should I plug in. In a certain order
View 2 Replies View RelatedSo I installed some weird file and it like disabled ALL of my USB ports, hwo can I get them to work again?! Both my keyboard and mouse are USB and I don't have any regular ones, any way I can fix this through my 2nd partition using WinXP? im using the Win XP partition to ask this right now, my Win7 partition seems to run fine like when it happened I thought it froze but it didn't because the wifi signal went off from my USB wireless adapter and my mouse+keyboard adapter both light off as well as my DVC 80 capture device. The file I ran was 'libusb-win32-filter-bin-0.1.12.2.exe' from a package I downloaded in a zip called 'iHackintosh iRecovery Package for Windows & Mac' and I REALLY DONT want to restart my computer

View 3 Replies View RelatedI noticed recently that for some reason,my USB ports aren't being identified as 2.0 ports, but I know they are. My computer is an ASUS CG5270, Specs: Core 2 Quad @ 2.4 GHZ,8 gigs ram, 750GB hard drive. I tried going into the device manager and uninstalling everything under "USB", and then restarting and replugging everything in..no luck. I found some Fix for Windows 7 SP1...no luck. Whenever I go into the Device Manager, there are two ports ( I think they're ports) listed as "Enhanced", with the rest as "Universal". I keep getting errors when I plug in my external HD that "this device could perform faster". (I also get another message telling me that the drive needs to be formatted, but it works anyway). I also get a "this device could perform faster" with my webcam, as well...

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 Internet, 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..
On my Dell Vostro laptop, Up until today I never had a problem but now when I plug in my energy monitor to a USB port I do.. I have a mouse plugged in one port. If I plug in my energy monitor into any of the other 3 USB ports it installs a USB to serial port at the next higher com number. Its up to com 18 now. If I unplug and replug it in again it will find USB to serial com 19. It just keeps going up. How can I reset it back to 3 or 4.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI just installed Windows 7 tonight and thus have moved from the Vista forums to here
But of course if everything were going smoothly I wouldn't be here. Now here's my problem, I'm trying to open ports for some of my programs but I havn't been able to. I've done it many times before in Vista with no trouble. I've tried disabling the firewall to see if that worked but it didn't.
Now here's where it gets weird. When I was in Vista I'd use Open Port Check Tool to check if my ports were opened correctly, it always worked. But now when I try it it tells me that my ports are closed, even basic ports like 80 and 21 keep getting:
Error: I could not see your service on 76.68.106.153 on port (80)
Reason: Connection timed out
is there a program that can show me the exact ports that an aplication or all the aplications on my computer use, or is there another way to get the information.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIm using windows 7 RTM x86
I want to close some opened ports.These ports are 135 and 445.
So, I try to close/block these ports using Windows Firewall. ( with advanced settings )
I created inbound rule for closing port 135(TCP) (as you can see attached screenshot )
Also I applied same step for UDP.
but, when I scan my pc's opened ports using Net Tools 5 program ( open port scanner tool ) , it found port 135 as open.
I created rule and blocked/closed port 135 but Net Tools says : Port 135 still open.
This is risky for me.
How can I close this port correctly ?

I have 3 USB ports but only one of them is working (OS Windows 7 64 bit.
