Hi,
Have you tried these:
1. disable onboard USB?
2. uninstall USB2.0 drivers in WinXP
3. use only the USB card without any other PCI card (just for testing)

MSI P43 won't boot with usb devices connected

When i try to boot i freezes at the detecting usb devices when i have a usb device connected. It does with any usb device. But when i boot up without any usb devices connected then i boot fine and i can connect the devices right after the detection of usb devices. How can that be?

Googled on "computer not booting with usb code 6b38" and found this:
Quote
****SLOW BOOT-UP in POST SCREEN****
P.S. If you see the BIOS code 6B38 in the bottom right corner of the screen, this is a indication that USB Legancy support is enabled in the BIOS. If this is enabled and you have any usb devices attached such as a external USB Hard drive, your system will take ages to go through the POST boot screens.
So disable this setting in the BIOS and the system will then boot in a matter of Seconds
From:
http://www.rebelshavenforum.com/sis-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=30;t=000250
Also try and see if a clear CMOS will help, some people suggested that from a old post from MSI forum here, saying its bios 1.3 thats bugged.
So if disabling doesnt work, perhaps down/upgrading BIOS might.

Notebook won't boot with usb device plugged

Hi,
Voila, I have a Satellite Pro Sp6100, when i try to boot it whith an usb printer plugged in, the notebook won't start at all. i have latest bios version 1.90.
Thx,
Barzot @+

Hello
It will be interesting to know if the printer is ON or OFF when you start the unit. I have tested my Tecra M1 with USB stick and the boot up procedure needs about 5 min. If I put the USB stick out the unit starts as usual.

IMAC won't boot with USB card reader attached

My quite new 24" iMAC won't boot if I have a USB card reader attached:
I get to the white screen with the apple logo, but it gets stuck there and the little spinning gear below the apple logo never appears (I've waited several minutes). (In all my test cases, there is no card in the card reader.)
I've tried two different card readers with the same results ("iDOTconnect" brand and a brand new Apacer unit, both are USB2.0 multi-format card readers).
The 1st one I tried via a USB hub, the second one I tried via a new hub and also directly connected to the mac (both of those hubs work fine).
Anyone have any ideas?
Regards,
Strathglass

Hello strathglass
The same thing can also happen with other connected devices such as external HD's and iPods, the Startup Manager is lost and searching for a boot volume.
1. You may be able to fix it by going to: *System Preference / Startup Disk* and select the *Mac OS X 10.5.5 on Macintosh HD* then *Click the lock to prevent further changes.*
2. Leave those devices that cause boot issues disconnected until the iMac is up and running!
3. Only sleep the iMac, and be sure to disconnect those devices be for shutting down or updates that require a restart!
As a habit, I have always ejected and disconnected all mounted USB devices (flash driver, iPods, cameras, card reader, etc.) from my hub be for sleeping, restarting or shutting down...

P7N Diamond (still) won't boot with USB Keyboard

Hey everyone, I have my box up and successfully running now, thanks for your help. I have 2 remaining issues. The motherboard will not post with my USB Saitek Eclipse I keyboard plugged in alone, I have to plug in a PS2 to get it through Post, then switch it out.
Also, almost every time I cold boot, I get a message that says, "Operating System Not Found." When I reboot, it works fine.
I've read through previous posts, but nothing seems to directly address my issues. Do you think the keyboard thing is a wait-for-BIOS-updates fix? Has anyone else successfully booted with a USB Keyboard on a P7N?

The only time I had an "OS not found" error was when bios for some odd reason set first boot priority to the usb port on my dell monitor as well as other usb devices before my boot drive. I changed boot priority and it went away.

W701 Won't boot with USB dongle attached

W701 with current BIOS (6KET46WW v1.12) will hang if there is a USB dongle for a Microsoft Explorer Mouse USB dongle in the upper left USB (2.0) socket on boot. Works fine if you put the USB dongle in the lower USB/eSata socket. Note that the upper socket on this 2541-W1Z is NOT a USB 3.0 port (silver, not blue). Course I don't want to put it in that socket since I like to use that for eSata... Apparently the same problem exists in the W5XX laptops as well, but I don't see a post discussing the issue on the W701.

Have you seen the thread
Hangs on boot with Logitech wireless keyboard
Yours may be a similar problem.
I'm about to get a W701 in a day or 2 and will be in the same situation. I'll check it out and report back when I can.

Windows Won't Boot With USB Drives Attached

I just installed Windows 7 on my Mac mini but it won't boot into Windows automatically if there are USB drives attached. I have to hold down the option key at boot time and select the Windows partition manually for it to boot, unless I remove the USB drives first, then it will boot into Windows on its own. Does anyone know how to fix this annoying problem?

Sounds like your mini is set to boot order: boot from USB first.
On a PC you could go into BIOS and change boot order and enable/disable USB booting.
Not sure why or what is on the USB bus, type of drive and device that could also make a difference (and not be universal to the Mini)

Intel imac won't boot with usb powered hub attached

My intel imac has started to not boot with a powered (have tried a variety of them) attached. Just stops at the white screen. Also, after I attach the hubs (2, both powered) the computer got into spurts when it just kicks everything attached to the hubs off saying that something pulled too much power. At other times it is fine with the same set up. I've tried resetting the PRam but it didn't make any difference.
I see from other postings that this isn't too uncommon, but didn't see any fix.
Thanks

Can you determine if it is just one of the hubs? Resetting the PRAM probably didn't have anything to do with this problem but the SMC controls the power, try this reset:
SMC RESET
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.

E9280t can't boot with USB 3.0 cards (multiple vendors tried) New e9280t BIOS version needed

Hello...
I purchased a new e9280t last year from the HP Website complete with 9 gb memory (now 16), Blu-ray/DVD writer & reader, Hauppauge Digital TV tuner, ATI Radeon 4850 Dual Monitor video card, etc... SInce then I've added more memory and a 3 port Firewire 400/800 card. Its running Win 7 Pro (sp1) and the BIOS is v5.29.
I purchased a external USB 3.0 WD drive (3 TB) and a StarTech USB 3.0 card (Amazon.com). After installing the USB 3.0 card, the system would power on for one second and die and then do it again a couple seconds later and the cycle continued until the power cord was pulled. I then pulled the USB 2.0 card and tried again only to have the same results. The only cards that remained in the system during the testing was the ATI card and the Hauppuage TV Card.
Thinking the problem was with the USB 3.0 card, I purchased another vendor's (Rocketfish from BestBuy) and installed it. The same problem as with the other USB 3.0 card, the system won't start.
No driver software or any other changes were made to the system before installation attempts (per vendor's installation instructions).
Since the failures all occur during the initial power up sequence and that the cards were tried with and without having power connected to them, that the problem is only correctable with a BIOS upgrade for the TRUCKEE motherboard. I could be wrong but I'm going on 30 years of hardware experience as my framework for that opinion.
If anyone else has this same problem, It would be good to rally around and see if HP notices us.
Thanks,
Norm
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Greetings,
I have tried multiple vendors and have yet to find a USB 3 card that will allow the computer to boot (for more than a 1/10th of a second).
I've tried removing every card in the system except the the display card and no go. Two of the cards removed had power connectors to them and the third did not. So even after removing those cards along with disconnecting one of the two internal hard drives, I'm certain its not a power issue. As to what it might be, I don't know.
If anyone else has been able to get a USB 3 card to work in that system, I'd love to hear from you.
Thanks,
Norm

Dell optiplex 755 won't boot with NI PCI Fieldbus card installed

After installing NI Configurator 3.1.0 on new Dell optiplex 755 and then installing the NI PCI Fieldbus card the pc won't boot up.
This card works fine 745 and older dell pc's.
Anybody else having this problem?

Hi,
In which step does the boot process fail? Is there any error message?
After installing NI-FBUS 3.1, please go to Windows Device Manager, check whether the driver of PCI-FBUS is correctly installed. There should be no any error in Device Manager.
You can try the following methods.
1. Change to another PCI slot.
2. Use Windows XP. NI-FBUS 3.1 does not support Windows Vista.
3. If there exist other PCI devices in the system, remove them and try using PCI-FBUS only.
4. Update the drivers of Dell Optiplex 755 if there are new versions, including video card, ethernet card, etc.

Brandnew Lenovo M93 won't boot with USB device plugged in...

Since last week i got the Lenovo M93 with Intel i7-4770 CPU @ 3,40GHz. With 8 GB on board it's a real great machine!
The only thing i notice is when I boot the machine, it hangs on the opening screen, which says 'Lenovo'. Only after I remove all (2) USB connected HD's it advances and starts booting Windows. At that time i can reconnect the HD's
What can be the problem? The only 2 devices are external HD's which worked well on my 6 year old HP machine. One of them has an external powersupply.

I restored to Windows 8 from the Lenovo disks, then upgraded to 8.1. I'm booting from UEFI bios, the external is 3TB and is MBR, which is the way it came from the store. Do you think it could be because its MBR partition style?I don't know how a hard drive of greater than 2TB cannot be GPT. At least that's what it is supposed to be. MBR is for 2TB or less. If it came from the factory as MBR, that sounds wrong to me. Unless only 2TB is "visible". All the reports on this forum (in a number of separate threads) about this same problem all talk about (1) Windows 8/8.1, (2) UEFI BIOS, and (3) external drives larger than 2TB. In my own "problem-free" case, it is (1) Windows 7, (2) legacy BIOS, and (2) external drive of 2TB. I'm not denying that there would seem to be a Lenovo problem in the UEFI BIOS, but getting a 3TB drive that's partitioned as MBR sounds wrong. How about if you just delete all partitions on it, and recreate new partitions... with GPT. Use Partition Wizard. Does it make any difference? Or can you still not boot successfully with the USB drive plugged in?

Won't boot with usb printer plugged in!

Not only the printer but my logitech usb charger for my MX700 mouse. Is there a way to fix this?

what printer is it K8N SLI Issue - USB Mass Storage Issue try disabling USB KB/Storage Support. are there any unidentified devices in device manager with yellow icons - chances are they relate to your printer.
It's a Brothers 210c. I disconnected it like ya'll suggested and I am booting normally,after six weeks. Thanks to all, bchivers.

Mega 180 won't boot with USB 2.0 device

Well, like a lot of others here I've managed to put the Mega Puzzle 180 together and get it working fairly well. The documentation is dismal and the included "home theater" app is not even half baked yet. The one serious problem I haven't solved yet is that the machine will hang on boot if the USB 2.0 video capture device I bought is inserted. It brings up the green/white AGP 8X screen and just hangs there. It hangs using either the front or rear USB ports, speaking of which it would be nice if they were documented properly as the front being USB 1.1 only.
Has anyone else seen this behavior ?
And if anyone is keeping track, the Toshiba SD-R5112 DVD-R drive works perfectly(as long as your remove the front bezels).
It's an interesting product that looks cool as hell, but doesn't quite work as well as it looks...
CD

Just a thought....
You can disable the Full Screen Logo in bios, and then observe where it's hanging.
On another forum, with completely different hardware/usb devices [DV Encoders] a similar problem was reported. It was found that Norton AV was constantly scanning the USB ports, assuming they were drives. Disabling Auto Protect enabled the boot process, and then were able to configure NAV to remove checking on the suspect ports [drives], and solved the problem.
May not apply in this situation......

MacBook won't boot with USB hub attached

My new MacBook stalls during the boot process when my powered, 4-port USB 2.0 hub is attached. If I unplug it from the USB port, OS X continues to successfully boot up.
Is this a known issue? The same hub works fine with my PowerBook G4.
Thanks.
MacBook 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo | iPod 5G 60GB Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Yeah, I've already tried that. Much thanks for the reply, though.
It boots fine once the hub is unplugged. I'm just too lazy to remember to unplug the thing every time I start my MacBook. And, I'm generally annoyed because it all worked okay with my PowerBook G4.
So, anyone with a MacBook that boots up fine with a USB hub connected, what kind do you have? I need a recommendation.
Thanks.

IMac Won't Boot With USB Keyboard Connected

We have a suite of 10 iMacs (10,1 - 21.5 inch), but one of them will not boot and has issues coming out of sleep while a USB keyboard is plugged in.
Have tried swapping the keyboard with another iMac - the other iMac still boots but the problem iMac continues to play up.
Tried plugging the mouse into the iMac's USB instead of the keyboard's.
Tried SMC reset, PRAM reset.
Re - imaged the machine from a time machine backup of one of the other iMacs, which made the issue go away for about a month... but then it returned.
Using a magic keyboard is fine as a workaround, but the users need the number pad, and if possible I'd rather fix the issue than buy a clunky separate keypad.
Does anyone have any ideas? Any help would be very appreciated!
