Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller (Code 12)

[Guest]

I'm suddenly having USB device issues, and upon closer examination, my
OpenHCD USB controller is now giving me a Code 12 (This device cannot find
enough free resources that it can use.)

The only major updates I've had recently was the last Windows Update. I've
tried removing the offender, and all my USB controllers and reinstalling
them, but it comes back with the same error.

I have the following as USB Controllers:
- Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller
- Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller (Code 12)
- USB Mass Storage Device
- USB Root Hub

Any suggestions on how I can take care of this?

I am having the same issues.

Since downloading recent updates, cannot get kodak camera to connect to
comp.. no matter where I plug in..
checking devices.. Standard OpenHCD USB is giving me the same notification..
-drivers are coming back as up to date
-dual core/ 2gb/ vista home basic
-controllers:
Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller
USB Root Hub
Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller (showing problem)
(location-PCI bus 0, device 11, function 0)

-Error:This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code
12)

If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other
devices on this system.

Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and
to see if there is a solution available.


--I also cannot just restore to a previous point to remove the update.

-it may be worth noting, I udated the last 4-5 updates at once.. 941649 &
941600 showed as "failed to update".. but USB problem had alreadyappeared..
(941600 relates to USB issues)
attempted multiple times to add both through updater.. nope.
finally loaded one at a time through a download from microsoft.. but,
problem persists

I'm suddenly having USB device issues, and upon closer examination, my
Dropping a reply to highlight I'm having the same issue. Again, only
system change/install was a Vista update mid-late last week.

I'm running on a HP Pavillion DV9000z and my device listings are same
as OP. Tried uninstalling the drivers and reinstalling the HP nVidia
motherboard/chipset drivers and the install will find and install the
device and require a reboot. Upon rebooting, we're back to the same
issue.

Dropping a reply to highlight I'm having the same issue.

One thing to note, external Hard Drives still work such as my WD
Passport drive and my Sony Camcorder but I can't get my wired or
wireless USB mice to work.

Just to add to the numbers, I have had the same problem. Spent last half day
trying to track it down abd believe that the following patch was the problem:

Cumulative Update for Media Center for Windows Vista (KB941229)

Sound was disabled as were all my USB ports.

What do you think my chances are of billing Microsoft for the lost half day?

 

[David Hudson Floyd]

I'm another one. Is MS going to release a patch fix or are we going
to have to hunt down the solution when someone writes it up?

 

[Guest]

Another victim here... or similar behavior anyway. Here's my story...

In device manager there are 2 USB Controllers listed with an exclamation
point. When I try to re-install the drivers, I get this message:

Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while
attempting to install it. "Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller".
The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an
application request....

The other one is "Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller", otherwise, same
error message.

The only way I can use the damn computer is to remote desktop in. Keyboard
and mouse (which are USB) aren't recognized. I'm on Vista Ultimate 32bit BTW.

When I boot with the DVD, both mouse and keyboard work. None of my system
restore points work. I get a cycle redundancy check error every time I try
to restore.

I'm not sure what to do now. Seeing other people with the same problem at
the same time makes me wonder if a fresh install will even fix this. Come on
MS, give us a bone here.

I've been digging through updates as well and I found this one....

KB941600 - This article describes an update rollup that resolves some
reliability issues in the USB core components in Windows Vista. You will
achieve better reliability in various scenarios by installing this update.

I've removed all of the updates that were installed last week, but I still
can't install the drivers for the USB controllers. Windows just won't let
them install. I still get this error:

The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an
application request.

I hate to say "misery loves company" but at least I can take heart that these
issues are shared by many, thus eliminating a failure at my end. I've
uninstalled all my updates since my failures happened, but to no avail; the
darn thing still isn't getting its resources. Devs, please take note!

 

[Guest]

Me too. I'm also getting the code 12 on the Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE
Controller. Something got screwed in one of the latest updates.

 

[Guest]

Add me to the long list of those who have this issue. Since this error
started, I cannot print or use my digital camera.

Any updates?????

 

[Guest]

About the same time as the OpenHCD code 12. I'd say last week sometime.

My fingerprint reader stopped working off one of the ports and that's when I
noticed both problems.

 

[Elliott]

Not, but at least it didn't cause problems on my other computers.

I went to Device Manager and clicked on Check for Solutions. After I clicked
on Check Online, I received a prompt to send additional information. This
occurs only on the USB driver, not on the PCI driver. I suspect MS is finally
looking at this.

Suggest everyone do the same.

 

[Elliott]

Sounds like Windows 98 or XP.

My suggestion is that we submit the additional information to MS.

Also, we can list what we have on our systems and see if there is something
in common. We can all post the first page of System Information as a start.

I had the same problem as well after installing the updates. The lsit of
things that broke:

1) OPENHCD resouce conflict
2) IDE controller resounrce conflict
3) It decided that enough changes had occurred, that it deactivated Vista. I
had to call the phone number to re-activate again.

the OPENHCD only seems to affect USB 1.1 devices connected straight to your
PC. All my USB2.0 devices still work fine. Also, the USB 1.1 devices WILL
work if you plugh in via a USB 2.0 hub (my monitor has one built in). By
doing that I can still use my USB mouse & keyboard.

I've been loking all over for help with this, and found nothing on what
Vista thinks the conflict actually is, or how to resolve it.

I have an Nvidia P5nsli mainboard with xp home and vista premium installed on two different hard drives.
The XP has no problem but the Vista has the error code. I am waiting for a reply from Microsoft Techs and Nvidia Techs to answer. I am also checking Anandtech Forums to see if anybody has come up with this same issue. My Usb ram drives work but my iomega clik drive does not. I have three versions of Vista on two computers which all have the code 12. But not on the XP Versions. Might want to add that it may only be a Nvidia mainboard problem.

Looks like the missing link is NVidia Chipset mainboards..

I bit the bullet and went the reinstall route, adding all windows
updates upto the begining of November (windows update won't connect
at the moment so can't list the outstanding ones, I think there's 3 or
4, including the Media Center update). Touch wood, we're so far all up
and running ok.

Does anyone have any contact details for someone at MS we can throw
this problem at?
