T410 (2522-CTO) - USB issues

Hi, when new my TP had none of the following problems. How do I determine if this is Software or hardware issue ? Then how do I correct it?
Running Win 7 Home Premium SP1
1)plug card reader into usb , plug in SD card. Recognises the devices but when you try to read the contents of the card it takes forever to enumerate the directory contents. When it finally achieves this, trying to open one of the files takes 10's of minutes or a copy operation. The light on the device goes out for minutes then turns on again etc. It is not usable.
2)plug in ipad. Again after several minutes itunes starts but indicates there is no ipad connected. Windows recognises it and I can read and view some of the pictures but that is all. It appears to go through a process of connecting, dropping, reconnecting etc as the explorer pop-up, asking if you want to open file manager or view the picutes etc, opens multiple copies of the dialog and ipad beeps each time (ie indicating it is connected.)
Other USB devices work fine eg memory stick.
I followed the apple article that recommends reinstall of device drivers and of USB drivers. I have tried this to no effect.
Greatly appreciate some advice

hey crash486,
try uninstalling the device drivers and usb drivers. let windows install its own generic drivers.
at the same time, update the bios of yours. currently the t410 runs on version 1.38 .

Driver update for Win 7 USB issue on nVidia chipset systems now available

This patch is needed for the TouchSmart 600 AIO Desktop series if you haven't installed it.
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Lockups-Freezes-Hangs/Driver-update-for-Win7-USB-issue-on-nVidia-chipse...

The update is not part of the desktop Win7 update disc from MS or HP - Microsoft has not yet integrated it into Win7, and it is not yet available on Windows Update (it is likely to hit there sometime in January). It was available too late to get it out on HP Update before the holiday break. I don't believe there have been any rolls to the Win7 upgrade disks. I do recommend (while still on Vista) running HP Update and installing all applicable updates - PRIOR to doing the Win7 upgrade. Also - I'd double check the drivers page for your system for any Vista updates as well, best to do any driver/BIOS/Video BIOS updates prior to the Win7 upgrade process. I know that some of them were created before Windows 7 was out - and may not want to install if it sees the newer OS.
As to the fix - this could manifest itself in many ways - but essentially - this resolves system flakyness with USB devices attached . Some internal devices (card readers, touchscreens, some Wireless LAN interfaces) connect via USB - so they could be affected, even if you haven't hooked up anything to your system externally.
Not sure just what problems you were experiencing, so can't say this was the cause (and will be the fix) - but if it applies to your system - I'd definitely give it a shot. I checked a couple of systems that had this update - I see it now on the software drivers and update page for them, so it looks like it rolled out OK.
Happy Holidays...

24" iMac USB issue

Recently my 4-yr-old 24" iMac has been having USB issues. The only peripherals it will see are the mouse and keyboard (and a printer if it is plugged into the keyboard). Nothing else plugged into the USB ports is recognized - no iPhone, no printer, no hub, nothing. The built-in iSight camera and Bluetooth have also disappeared, and I know they are USB related as well. Genius bar says $450 for new logicboard. I can't find my AHT disk
The USB ports all seem to work with the mouse and keyboard. Any other suggestions? (I have reset PMU.)

Try resetting the SMC, if it doesn't work the first time do it 2-3x. Also try doing a PRAM reset.
_SMC RESET_
• Shut down the computer.
• Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
• Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
• Release the power button.
• Attach the computers power cable.
• Press the power button to turn on the computer.
_PRAM RESET_
• Shut down the computer.
• Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
• Turn on the computer.
• Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
• Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
• Release the keys.

Usb issues on a215

i downloaded the BIOS update to fix the screen going black issue, but now i'm having horrible USB issues.
1. a drive i've used for 3 years can't be recognized by the laptop, no matter what port i put it into.
2. i keep getting that "connection tone" noise as if things are being plugged and unplugged, but i'm not doing anything.
is there an update for this problem? i must admit i've had usb issues w/this laptop forever.

Hi,
So, I suggest you if you have something attached to your USB Ports, then remove it and try to boot your machine up. Remove EVERY
This should help you out.
If you got no success, then try following:
1. Remove your battery and remove AC.
2. Remove EVERTHING attached to your USB ports
3. Put the battery in the machine back and connect AC
4. Try to boot, it would be better to boot in safe mode (accessible through pressing F8 before windows is booting up)
In case of no success, give some feedback, maybe I or other users can give you then more hints.

Macbook Pro USB issue

Hi All;
I saw lots of discussions about USB problem of Macbook Pro, and i tried maybe all suggestions, i couldnt solve USB issue
I bought my Macbook Pro 13 inc, 500 GB, i5, OS X Lion, 2 days ago and this is my first Mac ...
I cant see my external disk (Philips), Samsung Galaxy S by using USB ports (i tried both USB enterances, but not working).
I checked my Hardware by Apple Hardware Test (extended test done) and it says 'No trouble found'
I checked Utilities and USB devices are not written in the list, only 500 GB SATA disk shown.
I uploaded MacFuse-Tuxera and ntfs-3g-2010 softwares for using USB devices but i cant solve the problem too...
My USB devices are not shown in desktop and utilities lists
How can i solve this problem, my devices work in Windows 7 - PC as usual, but in Macbook Pro, they dont work, please support me. I dont think that it can be hardware problem, Mac is new and devices are ok. Operating systems are different only.
Thanks, Regards.

I solved the problem about Samsung Galaxy S, now i can connect it by changing settings of GALAXY S.
Settings>Applications>Development
Than i plug phone to MAC and now i can see my phone on desktop
I checked my PHILIPS external disk, unfortunatelly it is produced for only Windows operating systems, so i cant use it anymore
My MAC has no USB problem, i can use my 3G USB device too, only Philips external disk failed.
Thanks for your support...

Mac Pro USB issue

I have a weird situation. I have a Mac Pro 8 core 3.0Ghz with 13GB RAM, 4 SATA internal drives, 2 USB external 500 Western Digital Drives. I use bay one of the sata for OSX Tiger and Bay 2 for OSX Leopard (both purchased versions). The problem is when I'm in Tiger the USB drives have a through put of about 3MB and when booted in Leopard they have a through put of about 24MB. I can only guess that it's a driver problem, but I haven't been able to find anything about the fix. I did find that the WD USB Drives have a problem with speed. These WD drives are USB and SATA. When using them as SATA drives they work fine on both versions of OSX. The problem is I need the SATA connections for other drives and just want to use the WD drives as backup. Has anyone got any ideas why the drives perform normally under Leopard and not under Tiger?

Hi southwos,
That certainly is a strange one...
I have heard of several USB issues pertaining to tiger updates, noteably, 10.4.11. It would seem some USB drivers were updated to fix several bugs, but inadvertantly, caused others. The solution it seems, is to rollback to 10.4.9.
The symptoms of this 'unexpected feature' (sic) are that some USB devices seem to operate at USB1.1 speeds.
This only affects a small number of devices, and its the chipsets in said devices that have the conflict.
Certainly hope i have been of help
Cheers
Bryza

Lion = lackluster, USB issues

I'm very disappointed in Lion. With the exception of a few new features, it's useless and I'm shocked that Apple would publish a product like this. I've wasted $30. I never thought I would say anything like that about an Apple product. Up until now, I've never had any issues with any of the OS's.
Ever since I installed Lion, I've had USB issues. I plug something in and it doesn't work. Specifically, my iPhone, my flash drive and my USB 2.0 card reader. This is all equipment that worked flawlessly prior to the installation.
I've tried all the remedies: restart, plug and unplug the devices, tested the hub, plug and unplug from the iMac itself. Any suggestions?

I haven't heard that reported as a bug in Lion.
Have you tried an SMC reset?
Reset PRAM first.

P45 Platinum USB issues on XP 64 Pro

My mouse (Logitech MX518) works only when plugged into one of the USB ports on my motherbeoad. Any other port and it tries to detect new software - runs through the installation and I get a fatal error message - and the mouse does not work at all. I can't get the Logitech Setpoint software to install either - when installing the drivers I get an error message. I spent 2 1/2 hours on the phone with Logitech and they think it's a USB / Intel control issue. I had a SM Bus controller error in device manager and I used the "INF Update Utility - Primarily for Intel® 4, 3, 900 Series Chipsets (2455KB)" which solved the SM Bus controller issue. but I'm not sure that was the correct piece of software to use as the motherbeoad says its a P45 chipset. The USB issue has existed since I powered up the machine yesterday - the Intel software installation did not impact the problem either way. the MSI CD is useless as it doesn't seem to have any 64 bit drivers. I've downloaded all from MSI that I can find and got the audio and LAN working but I still get the occasional blue screen for really no reason, just surfing the web and bam - blue screen. am I missing something ciritcal for the installation? any thoughts are appreciated on the best way to set up this 64 bit system.

I'll look up the BIOS in a second
BIOS is A7512IMS V1.0 052108
I also made the change so it won't restart automatically if I get a blue screen. And BIOS has USB Enabled. (I'm catching up!)
Alright, now I'm trying to make a bootable CD to update my BIOS.
Update: Got the USB drive BIOS to function per the MSI Forum Flash Tool, but I get an error message - Error File ROM ID incorrect - and the BIOS doesn't update. Still listed as V1.0 and should be V1.7. My P45 isn't listed as supported for Sure Hands, so I haven't tried that. Don't know if that ROM error is the reason my BIOS isn't updating or not. I cleared the CMOS, etc. Not sure why it isn't working.
You have pickup the wrong BIOS file. Latest BIOS for your board is 1.5 ==> http://global.msi.eu/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=bios&maincat_no=1&prod_no=1479
1.7 doesn't exist.

T410 2516-CTO Memory

I have a T410 2516-CTO, Bios Ver 1.34, and Windows 7 64bit.
I would like to expand my memory. I currently have 2gigs, and would like to expand up to 6 or 8. What I can't seem to find an answer to is the max supported memory for my model.
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-55644#t
This link is displaying that the T410 model's maximum memory is 8gigs, however searching other sources online I keep reading about how they max out at 6gigs.
Hoping someone with this model has some experience with this and can tell me what the max is.
If you need any other information about my system please ask and I will update as I can

Your 2nd dimm slot will be tucked underneath the keyboard.
Take out the 1 other screw inside that back panel, flip over the unit and slide the keyboard forwards and pull the bottom side up. (You may need to gently pry it up with a small screw driver)
You'll see your extra slot right front of your nose but hiding underneath some black film.

MBP Kernel Panic - USB issue?

Hi,
We have a MBP mid-2009 model that seems to be undergoing frequent kernel panics, and all the logs show a similar type of report. Can anyone diagnose the following? I think it may be a USB issue.

Under the keyboard, hey? So you have a Titanium Powerbook. You should update your profile to include the model and CPU size of your Powerbook to help get more accurate assistance. Crucial is a reputable brand of RAM. They also offer a lifetime warranty.
The clips: I used to have a Titanium Powerbook, but it was a few years ago. If MY memory serves me right the clips move to the outside of the RAM modules. Due to the heat and never being removed they may have semi-welded themselves into position. One trick would be to heat the computer up and try to remove them while it is warm/hot. Just plug it in and run some CPU intensive apps for a while, then turn it off, remove the battery, ground the computer and give them another try. Grounding (earthing) the computer to remove static is not difficult. After you have removed the battery just touch the metal case and grab a metal window or door frame. That will ground any static in the machine. Also, if you are working on carpet take your shoes and socks off to avoid more static build up. You could even go as far to stand on a rubber bathroom mat while working on the computer, but replacing RAM should only take a few minutes. If you still have difficulties getting the RAM stick out go to a site called The Powerbook Medic and look for tips on removing sticks from a Titanium.
Hope the new RAM stops the panics.
SR.

T410 win7 - 64bit installation issue

Hi !
I am trying to install win7 - 64 bit version on a virgin HDD.
The computer boot on the DVD as expected, then when I click "install now" button, an error show up.
'no device drivers were found. Make sure that the installation media contains the correct drivers, and then click OK'
I don't even get to the point where I can choose a custom installation.
Is it a known issue ? What kind of drivers are missing ?
The computer (T410) can run on Win7 - 64bit with my company HD.
My goal is to make my own HD so I can swap between company and personal use.
Thx for any answer.
Solved!

It is an advanced format (4k sectors) drive. If you are installing from Lenovo recovery disks, it just won't work. Lenovo says that they do not support AF drives in machines that were not delivered with them (pre-T420). If you are installing from a regular microsoft disk, you can put the required intel storage drivers on a USB thumb drive and add them at the appropriate time. You can also install if you can find a windows 7 disk that includes SP1. I am out of town working on dial-up and have a hard time looking things up, but this should point you in the right direction.

V570 USB issues

I poked around here a little and found some threads that were similar to but not quite my problem. I'm not at the laptop in question at the moment so I'll try the BIOS USB reset later. For now I'll say that my V570 has picked up an odd USB gremlin that makes it forget it has peripherals plugged in, no matter which port they're in. Mice that stop working on it will work fine on it at other times (sometimes they won't work in a given port but will in another), and work fine on other systems. It's nothing I've been able to replicate in safe mode because it happens so randomly. Suspecting it was a driver issue I checked but found no issues or updates. AV is up-to-date and running normally. The only thing that seems resistant to this problem is my camera, which will always download just fine.
Should I expect that resetting the BIOS will fix this, or is this maybe some sort of undiagnosed hardware issue? Someone suggested that it could be a bad circuit on the motherboard, but I have my doubts. Wouldn't a bad circuit cause more problems than an intermittent USB glitch?
TIA for any help on this. It's mostly just an annoyance; otherwise I love this machine.

Seems that after I upgraded the BIOS the problem went away. Only that would fix it.
The bios in consumer support site mentioned it solved something. I extracted the text and share it here:
Solved Intel WLAN failed to work only when CD was selected as the first boot order.
Maybe it was your case. Anyhow, glad that you got it resolved.

FIX for USB issue where Files get corupted after I sucsessfully transfer to N

MP3 Player: Muvo N200 GB
Firmware: Creative MuVo Micro N200 Audible Firmware Upgrade .2.0
OS: Windows 2000 pro
Machine: Ibm Thinkpad
PROBLEM:
drag a folder of MP3's to the N200 in the Windows Explorer
2 wait for the zig zag line on the MP3 player to go straight.
3 Stop the Muvo mass stoarge device
4 Unplug the USB from the computer
5 Turn the Muvo N200 on
6 Folder has vanished
7 Plug Muvo back into computer
8 Folder is there, all files are missing
Also .. if I plug the Muvo in right after I coppied the files (after step 4) the files exist. I dragged them to the desktop, compared them to the originals with a binary compare and they are identical ... just to see if the files got corrupted.
It seems that when I turn the Muvo on, the files get deleted.
I then installed the N200 Media Explorer with drivers .. didn't help at all.
I tried this on a different machine, exact same files, and it works fine. Same OS, no Media Explorer.
Also, this is my second N200. Sent the other one back after talking with support. Got an error at the end of a format. When I tried to install the .2 firmware, I could no longer turn the player on (didn't try recover). I'm sure this N200 will do the same on my thinkpad. I installed the firmware on the other machine (fool me once ....)
EDIT: Further testing showed that this is a problem with my thinkpad. The N200 works fine as a thumb dri've on every other machine I tried. I tried using another thumb dri've on my Thinkpad and it failed in the same way. Also tried a Muvo NX .. just for kicks and it didn't work either.
FUnny thing is that I can copy a file to the N200, read it back right away .. compare them and they are identical. ONce I remove the dri've, and plug it back in, the file is corrupted.

:smileyvery-happy:My N200 now works on my thinkpad, and I just have to report on what I did to fix it .. just in case this helps anyone however indirectly.
In the device manager, I changed all Host controllers from
Intel 8280CA/CAM USB Uni'veral Host Controller
to
Strandard Uni'versal PCI to USB Host Controller
And now My USB not only works on my N200, it also fixed an issue with my USB scanner.
HOW TO DO THIS:
Right Click on the My Computer ICON
select MANAGE
select Device Manager in the left hand column
expand Uni'versal Serial Bus Controller in right hand column
Click on Intel 8280CA/CAM USB Uni'veral Host Controller and
Select Driver Tab and select Update Driver
Next ... select radio button that says Display a list of Known.....
then select Standard...
do this for all Host controllers.
Good luck ... I've been through everything if you want to send me a message.

Yoga 2 Pro touch screen no longer working & intermittent USB issues

Hey.
Got the Yoga 2 Pro 2 weeks ago. The touchscreen does not work at all today. I've reset/shutdown many times.
Here are the issues I have had in order of occurrence:
- webcam intermittently not coming up during verifice login on resume from sleep (probably ~ 10 times)
- touchscreen went mental, registering hundreds of touches per second all over the screen. Sleeping and waking stopped the mayhem. This happened JUST after plugging in a USB flash drive (which I have used before successfully).
- touchscreen does not work at all. Last night I had my phone plugged in to the laptop for a couple of hours. Touchscreen worked fine I unplugged the phone, but this morning on wake it is not responding at all no matter how many reboots I do.
The first two issues on their own I probably would have ignored, and this ccurrent issue I could imagine being some driver thing. But I worry that the two of them together imply some sort of big USB fault.
I'm not sure what the touchscreen is meant to come up as in device manager, but I've inluded a screenshot below.
Pretty desparate right now. I'm hoping this isn't a hardware fault because I need this laptop for work =$
Anyway, any advice/idas would be greatly appreciated.

Go to Solution.

As an update for anyone else experiencing this problem...
I left the laptop charging, put it to sleep, and went away for an hour or so.
I just came back and woke it from sleep. The battery is now at 92%. The touchscreen now works fine.
Checking device manager, there are now additional devices listed under "Human Interface Devices". See attached screenshot.
Although it is now working, this and the other issues have been super annoying and I'd like to know if anyone else has anything similar happen, or if there are any fixes.

USB Issue - Not recognizing ANY device

I am having a problem with my USB ports.
First of all, I have a IBM Thinkpad T42 - model number 2373-9XU.
I have the latest BIOS and all the latest drivers for the USB ports.
The issue just started a couple days ago. Whenever I plug in a USB device, such as my IPod or my Smartphone, it is NOT recognized by my computer. However, any device that I plug into the USB port will start charging. So, I know there is power to the USB ports.
I have uninstalled the USB drivers and reinstalled them, still having the same issue.
Also another note, I was looking through the device manager under System Devices and there was a yellow exclamation point next to "ISAPNP Read Data Port". The error code on it was "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"
Any suggestions?
PS. I have tried to reinstall the BIOS, but when I do that it says "No update is needed at this time" and won't let me install it. Is there a workaround to that?

So, I looked at the Services information on the Recover and Restore startup utility (pushing the AccessIBM button during startup) and found the following:
Service: upnphost
Name: Universal Plug and Play Device Host
Status: Stopped
(Previous Status: Running)
Startup: Manual/On-Demand)
Path: c:\windows\system32\svchost.exe
Vendor: Microsoft Corporation
Version: 5.1.2600.2180
(xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158)
Could this also have something to do with the USB ports not working properly?
