Jaziek Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 My PC is having serious problems with hardware.. every time i plug anything into a USB / memory card / jack.. on my PC , It doesnt reconize that it's there. Freezes up when i try to access it. And any program that tries to access it.. i.e - word and the printer.. freezes instantly.. I have no idea how to fix this and it seems to be getting worse by the minute.. ok.. it seems to just be taking one hell of a long time to recognize new hardware plugged into it or starting to be used.. I turned my printer on 10 minutes ago - and about 30 seconds ago my PC froze for a sec.. made the new hardware found noise.. and continued as normal.. what the hell ? all drivers are installed and up to date - nothing is wrong in device manager - i havent installed anything that would affect hardware and i have spybot, zonealarm and AVG - all of which report nothing wrong ---------------------------- after further happenings, i think the problem is being caused by a corrupted windows explorer. I cant attatch any USB devices to my PC without it first displaying a windows explorer error report then crashing altogether. I think I solved the boot problem although im not entirely sure.

Darrel104 Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 make sure you don't get any this device is not responding warnings Open device manager check the device status under the device manager and make sure it is good check the power consumption and make sure all the drivers are good make sure both are usb 2.0 make sure you have the correct and up to date drivers for your version of windows and your device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaziek Posted April 6, 2007 Author Share Posted April 6, 2007 i cant look at the device settings since it freezes before i can do anything with the device - as previously said - all drivers are up to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
das1330 Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 my guess would be that your port drivers are somehow corrupted or the connection from the jacks to the motherboard are bad and every time you access it an error message goes through your mobo and it locks it up to prevent mobo damage.
