I'm using an IBM NetVista, Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.80GHz and one night, powers went out. And when I turned my PC on, USB ports aren't working. To my surprise, at the device manager, USB section was gone. It was undetected, or w/e.
View 3 RepliesMy PC recently started to really slow down. I realized I had also recently had to re-install a DVD drive after it just disappeared and that I might have an IDE issue.I uninstalled all the controllers as recommended on a separate thread. There were 3 Primary and 3 Secondary despite the fact I only have 2 Hard drives and 2 DVD drives. This did the trick and my PC is now booting like it used to but I'm concerned that it still thinks I have 3 of each IDE controller. Surely I should have 2 of each. Does this sound right? I'm concerned that the problem will re-occur if I don't properly fix it. I've had problems with DVD drives disappearing before, though not for a while.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an Intel 865 board and XP running. The board has 4 USB controllers and hubs. If I want to connect USB2.0 capable devices, do I have to update all 4 controllers drivers, or just one?
View 12 Replies View RelatedI'm having lots of troubles with USB 2.0 support. My mother board is a ASUS P5GD2 Premium, which only has USB 2.0 ports but my Windows XP SP2 keeps popping up this error! I have some drivers, but they don't install because XP SP2 should already support USB 2.0. Maybe the cables that connect the USB ports are the problem.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI had a Thrustmaster Dual Power 4 game pad, and bought a Logitech Rumblepad later. I like the Rumblepad better, and want to consider it my "first string" controller. But if I go into say, Nba Live 2005, and go to choose controllers, no matter what I do, the thrustmaster is on the top of the list, and the logitech is on the bottom. All the old posts talk about choosing Preferred device in the control panel. By running DxDiag, I can see that setting something as the Preferred Device assigns it Controller ID 0. But I also see that the order of the Controllers, as recognized by most games, is the same as the order listed in the game controller control panel, and is completely unrelated to which device is "controller id 0" and "preferred device." For example, I set the logitech as preferred device, and plugged in the thrustmaster and also a gamepad pro.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an external hard drive that was working fine on my USB port but at some point my Dell Laptop with Windows XP stopped reognizing it. I tried the external hard drive in another XP desktop and it works fine. I have a USB mouse that worked fine so the port was OK. I tried reinstalling the external hard drive several times and tried to use another external hard drive that I verified worked on another computer but that also would not install. I broused your forum and tried the registry patch.

Now I can't install the USB controllers either.
I have installed this OS on a new Fujitsu PRIMERGY TX150 S4. Now I want just to use this Server as a server on a Workgroup. But the OS insists that it should be the Domain Controller. And then it just shuts it self down. Below is a log from the event viewer. Just don't really want to configure the entire Lan from workgroup to Domain.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI tried uninstalling the USB controllers from the Device manager restarting my computer, and waiting for the pc to re-install the devices itself. Unfortunatly, nothing happens. It DOES find the devices, it DOES reinstall everything, but when i plug in even the mouse, i get the same error msg. The usb ports are named "Unknown Devices" and when i check their properties, the have no drivers installed.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe Data Transfer status on my HDDs was PIO mode and I wanted to make it DMA so that my access speeds become faster. All I did was update my Primary IDE Drivers. They got updated and DMA mode was enabled. But during this I dont know what happened, but my device manager no longer displays Universal Serial Bus Controllers. The entire thread has disappeared (it doesent show up even when I do "Show hidden devices").
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have this major problem where my comp runs uber-slow untill I uninstall all the ATP/ATAPI controllers from my Device Manager and reboot. But the moment I reboot Windows reinstalls them again and after my next reboot my data transfer, and my comp in general is slow again.I have no clue as to why my comp runs fine without those controllers, but the moment they auto-install my comp becomes slow and jerky again.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've recently reinstalled XP on my PC using the recovery CD that came with it but I've noticed that the USB Host Controllers seem to indicate I only have USB1 and not USB2 like I had pre-reinstall. I've tried my hardest to locate them to no avail but stumbled across this which is for my particular PC but I am having a dumb moment and don't know how to revert to MS drivers. It's XP Home with SP3 installed.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've had this ax8 board for some time. Previously, I'd been using an av8. Here's a run down of what I've experienced. With all the default devices enabled in bios, random irq/driver irq not less than or equal BSOD's. Disabled on board FDC, still bsods. Disabled onboard LAN, still bsods. Disabled IDE controllers, still BSOD's. I've tried a pcie and pci card, still bsods. Tried SATA 3&4, still BSODs. I replaced my USB keyboard/mouse with an old ps/2 keyboard and mouse, unplugged my usb headset, and it hasn't crashed since.

Every time when windows start,there is a pop-up message from the task bar stating that a new hardware 'bus controller' was found and a large dialog box appears that prompts me to install the hardware.So I follow the instruction and check for 'install the software automatically' but failed.I tried several times but not successful.I then go to Device Manager and found a yellow exclamation mark under 'Bus Controllers'.Here I tried to right-click on it and hit 'update driver' but also failed.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have just upgraded my M/b, CPU & RAM. Went through the (painful) procedure of re-activation (how many digits ). Had to do a repair install to get XP to boot. While booting I noticed that the 'chasing lights' on the Windows flash screen had reverted back to green instead of blue, which indicates that I no longer have SP2 installed. Visited MS Update. Was told SP2 was already installed. However, I have no icon for Security Centre either.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was using the internet when suddenly the window closed and everything disappeared from my desktop (task bar, start button, desktop icons..everything leaving just the background). Didn't get any error messages or warnings either. I tried clicking on the desktop but got no response so I pressed ctrl, alt, delete, to restart. But when it restarted I got an empty desktop again and it wasn't until the 4th time restarting when everything was there again. I then opened internet explorer and it wouldn't respond. On the fifth time restarting, everything was fine but half an hour later I got the empty desktop again and had to restart 5 times again. Is this a virus? How to I get rid of this problem since it was running fine before this.

I can get to it from a straight explorer, but it's gone from my Start Menu and any program now that opens a "Select Folder" type dialog opens My Network Places and My Computer cannot be accessed.Note I keep it off my desktop, but even if I try to re-enable it on the desktop (Display-->Desktop-->Customize Desktop, Select it, OK), it doesn't work. When I go to Customize Start Menu, It's Listed as "Display as a Menu" but won't show up Kindof wierd? My guess is some line(s) in the Registry got erased somehow
