[dedjezter1]

Hey thanks man. I turned off my pc and unplugged it from the back and low and behold.... Your advice has turned my pc into a giant paper weight! It wont turn back on at all. Mobo has power, but pushing the power button does absolutely nothing. When I flip the switch to turn it off the fans on the psu, graphics card and main fan all give a little spin and stop. Worst advice I have ever followed. Thanks for nothing!!!!

[alirezashahi65]

Thanks a lot

[xJqle]

[LogSpoon]

Hello... Tyler...

[KGSolid]

You can also try and change in the Universal Serial Bus controllers menu the ports with the error by deactivating them. After that activate them again. Works like a charm on my computer xD

Anyway good job man!

[NikkiCR7]

But you get something, you get "device not recognized" I get nothing at all.. it works and it sounds as it's working it's just not detected on disk Management or device management.. 

[Ostrigio]

the only option i get it view driver details any help

[Exeniath]

I have the opposite problem, evrytime i plug in a certain, very valuable, USB stick it keeps saying "unknown Device". What am i gonna do?

[Veseh]

@Exeniath Re-install the drivers from the CD that was in your HD PVR package

[GFXHeat]

Guys if youe usb port won't do the HD PVR THINGo try turning EVERYTHING* off even the computer then restart in this order:

HD PVR

Xbox

TV

Computer should work <3

[xAzEffectzHD]

@GFXHeat You knew my exact problem.

[GFXHeat]

Hey man, Mine WILL not work im trying to plug in my HD PVR and like down the right hand side it says USB Device not Recognizable but i've tried your help twice but yeah =(

[M4gePure1995]

@GFXHeat That means there is a problem with the USB wire with your PVR, I kept getting that so I replaced it with my printers wire and it fixed it.

[xjakj13]

Hi, if you weren't successful with this scenario, try to completely power off your computer. That worked for me..

[TheRayman62]

I DID IT BUT IT NEVER WORKED! AFTER IT SAID "YOUR DEVICE IS READY TO USE",IT KEPT SAYING"UNKNOWN DEVICE"

[Inamu99]

Well when i plug any usb thing to the psp and computer.. it does not read it from psp.. i have to like break my usb to get it to work HELP i broke 23 of them already. o.o

[eliasdonado]

All 3 USB ports suddenly just stopped working. Nothing pops up - not even "USB Not Recognized". Nothing. Nothing Happens. I tried unstalling and resetting - it installs on its own just fine and still absolute nothingness.

What is strange is when my iPhone is off and plugged in it'll charge. The battery won't pop up on the screen to let me know that its charging but once I turn my iPhone back on the battery is charged.

[ramboanime]

THANKS U SAVE MMY LIFE AND MADE MY DAY!!!!!!

[iNeems]

YEAH, thanks so much:)

[GodlessManitoban]

I just did this.

Unplug my computer and remove the motherboard battery for 10 minutes.

Problem solved.

[StuntebeckProduction]

[princejmye]

[dunzy06]

@princejmye Watch my other video it has an alternative way to fix this problem. Thanks for Watching!!!

[princejmye]

@dunzy06 hmm u said the same thing when i say it on the other page

[dunzy06]

@princejmye Just the beginning is the same, the middle and end show a different way to fix the same problem.

[sneh24487]

Hi, I tried whatever u said but it's not working for me. My laptop still pop up the message that usb device not recognize whenever i connect my iphone 4.

What should i do??

[valentines1991]

i plug in my pen drive and always need to go to my computer there press F drive...any 1 know how to make it appear a box after plug in ??

[balbool22]

what if the usb stick isn't working in any other computer

please help

[dunzy06]

@balbool22 My best bet would be that your USB stick is corrupt/broken. Sorry :'(

[jjammmees]

@dunzy06 Wow this is weird. So i did everything you told me and when the computer comes back on it installs the things but the message still appears saying "USB device not recognized"

So i had a random thought of plugging an old mouse into my Laptop and it worked LOL... but the other mouse doesnt work :S. How strange.. oh well at least i can use my old mouse ;D

[1997dking]

[frankzito1]

[o0DeathStrike0o]

I have windows xp,i have two webcams,but it reacodnizes both of em as a unknown device and when i tray to search or manualy install the drivers,they still dont work D:

[dunzy06]

@o0DeathStrike0o Watch my other video it shows an alternative way to repair USB device not recognized

[o0DeathStrike0o]

@dunzy06 the link doesent work,it redirects me to the same video.

[dunzy06]

@o0DeathStrike0o The Videos are different only the beginning is the same because its showing the same problem. The middle of the video is where it changes to the alternative repair.

[o0DeathStrike0o]

@dunzy06 that didnt work too

[dunzy06]

@o0DeathStrike0o ok what is going on your ports are not recognizing anything?? If you tried both of these techniques and they still dont work you might have a "bad" port or your motherboard is going out.

[o0DeathStrike0o]

@dunzy06 i figured out that it does the same on every comp i have,but i have two cams and they do the same on all comps,i just dont believe it could damage that easy,it didnt fell on the ground and it was hidden in a paper box.

[dunzy06]

@o0DeathStrike0o I'm glad you found out what that problem was :)!!

[o0DeathStrike0o]

@dunzy06 i didnt

[rgbrspvp]

im gay

[o0DeathStrike0o]

@rgbrspvp yes,i know
