usb device not recognized

[Guest]

some of my usb devices have all of a sudden stopped working, my usb hub which
has its own power source is not recognised, nor is my ipod when plugged
directly in to a usb port. i have searched and searched but cannot seem to
find any help....

I have a similar problem with my USB 2 devices. PC will recognise devices as
USB 1.1 but as soon as I load USB 2 drivers (from m/board CD) they're not
recognised. I have even reformatted Hard drive and checked BIOS settings
(USB 2 enabled).

I hope we can both get an answer to our problems clarked.

I am having the same problem with Windows XP Pro, SP2. I have a Dynex USB 2.0
7 port hub. Reading through another thread, it says there is a hot fix, but
they don't direct you to the hot fix.

Basically, they say "sit back and wait". The article is from October 6, 2005!

I have exactly the same problem affecting my digital camera, 60GB ipod, USB
Memory Stick, although not my printer or scanner - only some USB devices are
affected. I've had nearly 2 hours on the phone to Apple as well as 40 mins or
so on the phone to Microsoft without success!

Like you, I have very little hope of this being fixed anytime soon.

You can call MS and get the hotfix. If you mention the article ID, they won't
even ask for your OS license #. Although, the hotfix doesn't work!

There are thousands of users who are having problems because of MS's faulty
USB drivers. It's unfortunate that MS hasn't prioritized a solution.

Just out of curiosity, how do you know it doesn't work? Have you been in
contact with everyone who has it?

Maybe I should've said that it didn't work for me. My problem is the same as
described in the article 892050, and after installing the hotfix, nothing
changed.

I found this useful:

I downloaded the hot fix last night and it didn't work for me either.
Microsoft, come on people!! What's the hold up. Can't you come up with a
better fix???
