Hi i was downloading and my computer turned off when i turned it on all usb activity turned off my usb modem (speedtouch 330) how could i fix this problem i have already tryed formating my computer still nothing thxs in advance?
Formatting your computer is not always the answer. Your OS may be repaired 99.9% of the time. The first thing that you need to do is check your device manager and make sure that you have drivers installed for the USB ports. You can also tell them to update drivers if they appear to be working. Now if it is just the USB modem that is not responding then maybe try hitting the reset button on it. If it does not have a reset button, then unplug it and unplug the USB cable. Turn your computer off and then back on twice. The second time the computer comes on hook up your modem and plug the USB back in. You should see that your OS notices new hardware. It should start working again. Sometimes people want to know why I tell them to turn off their computer twice. Your OS remembers your last settings when it shuts down.
i do have the drivers for the usbs in device manager it says status : working proply were when i connect my psp it dosent come up with mass storage device found and i cant use the internet because the usb modem i am on another computer What i know is that it is the usb i have tried many devices none are found not even my memory card reader (next to the usb) works it donsent come up with removable disk thx
Well, why did your computer turn off while you were downloading? Was there a short or a power outage? Is your computer connected to a surge protector? Did you unplug a device while it was running on the system? Things like this can cause faults in the motherboard and devices attached to them. Do you have USB ports in the front and the back of the machine? If you do have them in the front and the back, are any of them working? Give me a little better description of the exact problem that you are facing, and the steps that you have tried to correct the problem. This will give me a little guidance to start troubleshooting the problem at hand.
hay there is 3 usb in front and 4 in back i was downloading through utorrent and my computer just went off when it went back on nothing connected to the usb worked but they had electricity going through them because the usb modems light was on. My computer is pluged straight into the electricty and i think it turned off because my isp telecom had a outage. I went to device manager and disable and uninstalled the usb ports and when i press search for new devices it finds the ports and installs then and it says working fine (this is when i sore the little talkbox come up and say new hardware found I thought i got it but i didnt) thx again bro
Okay, since the machine said that it found new hardware, then the ports are working, or should be working. Try unplugging the USB items from the ports, doing an uninstall on the items from the device manager, then restarting your machine. Then do a complete reinstall of the items. You can try this on just one item at first to make sure that it works. If it doesn't then give me the name and serial of the item so I can research the problem. Thanks!
I have in device manager under - Universal Serial Bus Controllers Intel(R) 82801EB USB Universal Host Controller-24D2 Intel(R) 82801EB USB Universal Host Controller-24D4 Intel(R) 82801EB USB Universal Host Controller-24D7 Intel(R) 82801EB USB Universal Host Controller-24DE Intel(R) 82801EB USB2 Enhanced Host Controller-24DD USB Root Hub USB Root Hub USB Root Hub USB Root Hub USB Root Hub
try upgrading ur computer to the latest verison that microsoft has on its website. that was my problem for my new hard drives that i got that im using as a external device.
I have formated then updated my computer to the fullest still nothing all my usb ports dont work and it doesnt show my memory card reader as removable disk but power goes through the ports and it says they work proply do u think i should open the comp up and jiggle with it?
No don't open the computer up. Let me think about this a little bit. If you put a device on the USB port does the computer recognize that a new hardware?
When i hook something up electricty goes through it but i dosent recognize it when i uninistalled the usb drivers and i pressed find new and it poped up with found new hardware usb ports
