USB Recongnized But Not Working

I have a 915P Combo-F motherboard and all of the USB ports have quit working (rear and front).  Device Manager lists all the ports and says they are functioning properly.  I have uninstalled them from Device Manager and rebooted to allow the system to detect and re-install.  This appears to be successful but no USB devices will work in any of the ports.  Any suggestions?

Do you have the Latest Chipset Driver installed?
Yes, but USB is not working even with a USB keyboard to get in to the BIOS so I don't think Windows XP drivers are the problem.
Quote from: Heath-N-PC on 19-January-06, 01:49:19
Are you sure the USB's are connected to the Headers on the mobo properly?
The 4 rear USB's are built in to the motherboard so I would assume they are connected the way they are supposed to be.  Not to mention that the system worked fine for 3 months and then just quit working about a week and a half ago.
Quote from: Heath-N-PC on 19-January-06, 01:49:19
How many USB ports do you have on this system? (I always have problems when there are more than 8 USB ports)
4 Rear built in and 2 motherboard supplied connectors for Front (this is where the card reader was plugged in to).

Have you checked all the USB ports for bent pins or shorts?
Yes, none visible.
Quote from: Heath-N-PC on 19-January-06, 01:49:19
UNPLUG your 19 in 1 Card Reader, Then uninstall all the USB's in device manager. (no need to reboot, Just right click top icon in device manager and Scan for hardware changes)
Have done this, still does not work.  Again, the USB does not even function outside the OS so Windows XP cannot be the problem.
Quote from: Heath-N-PC on 19-January-06, 01:49:19
See if removing the 19 in 1 helps and get back with us.
As my previous post stated, I have removed all hardware other than CPU, Ram, and Video from the system.  It still does not work. 
I should have a replacement motherboard by the end of the week.  Hopefully that will resolve the issue.

    I have not upgraded any hard ware on the laptop,
    One day my laptop did not started and only showed a black screen, after doing all tests from the HP Advance System Diagnostics. it showed that the HDD fail the Short DST (wich indicated that the HDD wasnt good anymore or it was about to die, wich I hoped it was this last explanation as I never created a revovery disc for this laptop.

    I did a factory restored to see if it can revived it and it worked so I was able to create a USB Recovery Media successfully.
    Ordered a replacement HDD (actually the Seagate Hybrid 750 GB 7500 rpm SSD/HDD Momentus XT)
    Once got the new HDD I installed it, booted the laptop from the USB Stick containing the Recovery Media, but got the error: "The system recovery discs do not support this computer.
    You are not able to restore this system with these discs."
    when visiting the HP support site, It tells me the following
    "This error can occur due to the following conditions:
    Using the wrong recovery discs, such as those that were created or ordered for another computer." (not my case) 
    "The configuration data on the motherboard or hard drive was not correctly configured at the factory when the computer was manufactured."  (might be but will explain what I think about this one)
    "The motherboard on your computer was replaced with a motherboard that is not the same replacement part. If so, you must install a new operating system or replace the motherboard with an original type." (same as 2nd explanation)
    The first explanation is not my case because I did created the recovery media from the same laptop "Computer"
    The 2nd and 3rd Might explained why I cannot use the USB Recovery Media, but I shouldnt had the same issue when doing the Factory Restore from the factory or refurbisher installed HDD? since it basically install all drives and software nedded for the laptop to work? ( I consider myself as an average computer user, not ignorant but and expert )

    Hi:
    Sometimes the recovery media doesn't work for one reason or another and there is no one size fits all answer.
    As i see it you have two options:
    1. Order a set of recovery disks from HP.
    2. Make your own plain W7 installation media if you can read all 25 characters of the W7 product key on the bottom of your notebook.
    Option 2 will normally give you a much peppier PC, free of bloatware, but you will not have any of the programs that came with your PC that you may want.
    Or you can use option 2 to get your PC up and running until your set of HP disks arrive.
    Here are the instructions to do that if you want.
    Download the W7 Home Premium SP1 64 bit iso file from the link below and follow the instructions to use the Microsoft ISO to USB tool.
    Make sure you get the whole file to download. Make a note of the advertised size and compare that with the actual file that downloaded. Sometimes it states the download was complete but the whole file isn't there.
    Use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to compile the ISO file you download from Digital River. Link  below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method of compilation.
    http://download.cnet.com/Windows-7-USB-DVD-Download-Tool/3000-18513_4-10972600.html
    Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
    The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
    Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers and available software you need.
    Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below.

    Do you have some idea ....
    Bye.

    I have done the following:
    Downloaded the patched hal version.
    used makepkg in /abs/local/trunk/ to create a pkg for pacman
    used sudo pacman -U pkgname to install it.
    used sudo nano /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi to create the fdi file with the following content:
    saved the file and removed my ntfs entryes from fstab and rebooted. and still there is no automount off ntfs partitions.
    have i done something wrong?
    br fjodork
    WARNING: what follows is a guide of what did work for me, I'm still in an early stage of learning linux, so please correct me if anything of what follows is wrong/dangerous/stupid. As I said, this worked for me, it's not pretty, since I was learning each step on the fly and I'm sure there are better ways to do this.
    So fjodork, you seem to have done the the necessary steps, though i couldn't get it to work until i first removed hal without dependencies
    pacman -Rd hal
    it will give you some warning about the dependencies, ignore  it since we are reinstalling hal in a few steps.
    First i tried to follow Raymano's link, obviously it showed me nothing in the browser so I thought it might be a broken link.
    So I downloaded the source tarball from here http://hal.freedesktop.org/releases/hal-0.5.10.tar.gz
    unpacked it changed the /tools/hal-storage-mount.c as per Milfadoodle's instructions.
    at first I tried to compile directly from source, the process would finish without a glitch though after reboot nothing changed, as if hal weren't
    installed, i guess there were issues with paths. anyway read on
    Then repacked the source in tarball, copied it to /var/abs/extra/system/hal and modified the PKGBUILD as follows
    makedepends=('pkgconfig' 'gperf')
    options=('!libtool')
    install=hal.install
    source=(${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz #removed url so makepkg looks in the current directory for the tarball
        hal
        hal-policy.patch
        cryptsetup_location.patch
        hal-0.5.9-hide-diagnostic.patch
        ntfs3g-valid-options.patch)
    md5sums=('6641c30a27c00485c6accac5110ff911' # replace with md5sum of your package's sourceball (run md5sum filename)
             '882f67668cb14a0a9e4a27ef22278027'
             '5ba8b610aa9763a5f42b9f7cbd7a86ad'
    then makepkg (i had to add --asroot, don't ask why
    and finally pacman -U hal-0.5.10-1-i686.pkg
    another reboot and everything worked without a glitch!:D (yeah i know i still haven't got rid of the reboot mentality )
    I have also put the policy files as per the wiki instructions.
    PS: I know this is a dirty way to getting things done but as i said, I'm just starting
    If anyone could comment/correct/explain this post I'd be more than happy, the automount issue was bothering me for about a month now (you'll say why do I need ntfs in the first place? well, I only recently switched for Linux as my primary OS, these are some relics of the M$ era

  • Added USB Card does not work.

    I just added a 5 Port (4 external and 1 internal) USB PCIe Card to my mac pro. The MAC see the card but anything I plug in does not work. The items I plug in work on the other Apple USB Busses but not on the new card. This is actually my second card for this (I thought the first one was bad) but now I am beginning to think the MAC PRO is bad. I have plugged the card into every slot on the motherboard and they all are the same. card is recognized but anything I plug into the card is not...
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Hi Bruce Leingang;
    Everything I found on the web about that card say that it only works on Windows PC.

  • T420 USB Ports do not work after installing XP

    Hello my office has  been using Lenovo's for some time now but we recently purchased a T420 and installed Windows XP SP3 on it.  The issue we are having is that the uSB ports do not work.  I have tried every driver I can find but still no luck, can anyone help?

    hey chris0277,
    could you check in Device Manager and see if there is any ? or ! symbol on the USB area.
    If there is, i do recommend uninstalling the drivers from it and then visit http://support.lenovo.com and update your unit

  • 1 of my USB ports is not working. Help?

    Suddenly one of my USB ports is not working. No matter what I plug into it, it doesn't work.  Any help or ideas would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    Not in the one that's ailing, but it does in the other one.  I've also plugged in an external USB hard drive and that doesn't connect.  Also a mouse's USB dongle and that doesn't work in the ailing one, but is fine in the other one.
    I've also tried ( a couple of times ) to simple reboot hoping that would jog it, but that doesn't seem to help either.

  • USB webcam microphone not working with Starcraft 2 voice chat

    =USB webcam microphone not working with Starcraft 2 voice chat?Windows 7, X-fi Fatalty Pro
    I have a webcam with ?a built in microphone (Ps3 eye). ?It is connected by USB. ?The drivers are the CL-Eye drivers; a third party driver set since Sony does not directly support the eye for PC.
    in the windows audio device management, the microphone appears as normal and is set as the default device. ?I can use the windows sound recorder to record me speaking just fine. ?However if I use any other applications it doesn't seem to work at all. ?I can select the device as the default recording device in Starcraft 2 as well as Teamspeak 3 but no sound is detected. ?The USB microphone does not show up as a selectable device in recording options in my Creative Control Panel. ?Disabling the default creative microphone does nothing.
    I think the problem is in that windows can directly detect the microphone and so software that uses the windows audio device manager works fine, but anything that talks directly with my sound card software does not properly detect the microphone. ?Basically, I can select the device as a default device but it does not work.
    Any thoughts on this or am I SOL and have to find myself a shiny new headset?

    I had the same problem. You need to check the device index of your USB mic.
    In my case. I'm on a Mac OSX 10.6 system. I had four devices cataloged. With the last one being the USB mic.
    Then set like so in your AS code audioPub.microphoneManager.micIndex = 3;
    Remember, that the indexing is 0 based.
    The sound framework make the assumption that the index is 0.
    Hope that helps.

  • USB and iSight not working

I've been getting the following message everytime I restart (even when nothing is pluged in): "Becayse a USB devide was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices have been disabled". I've tried resetting the PRAM and SMC, this does not work.
    (2) My built-in iSight no longer works. I tried using skype and photobooth and the camera is not detected. I looked in my system profilers and isight is listed but I'm not sure what this information tells me (see below):

    Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Are there any tests I can run? I'm not sure if these issues are related or not. Please help.

    According to the AHT instructions on p. 61 of the manual for your 13-inch Mid 2010 MacBook, http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/macbook_13inch_mid2010_ug.pdf you did the correct restart process.  To me, the fact that AHT does not work either is one more indicator of likely hardware trouble.

    If nothing else you try fixes your issue, try restoring your Mac's software.  If neither a Time Machine restore nor a complete restore to factory original condition (p.60) corrects your trouble, I think you are left with the choice of AASP service or deciding whether it is time for a new Mac.

  • Airport Express USB printing suddenly not working

    Hi, we have an airport express which doesn't seem to be working properly. We've had it at least 2 years now. All has been working fine but suddenly USB printing is not working on it. When I load up AirPort utility and go to the printers tab, it says "USB printers: None". It didn't use to say that! I've checked the printer - it works fine when printing direct from computer to printer over USB (hence both the printer and the USB lead are fine). We use the airport express for iTunes and it works fine. The airport is running version 6.3. We used to print (when it worked) from both Windows computers running XP and from macs running Snow Leopard...
    Any thoughts?
    Edward

    Erm... help!
    In a bid to try to sort out the problem myself, I decided to restore the Airport Express (b/g) to the factory default and see if that helped... I did this through the airport utility. The airport reset fine and I then went through the set-up wizard. However, when it then tried to restart as part of the setup process, it said that there was an error and that it could not restart. It said to restart the airport utility and try again. This I did but it cannot see the airport. If I rescan, it says the same thing (unable to find any apple wireless devices). What should I do?
    All thoughts and suggestions gratefully received!
    Edward
