USB Maufunctioned
I keep getting a message suddenly that a USB device has not been recognised and has malfunctioned but I cant find what device it is. under device manager its just listed as USB Device.
Anyone have any ideas how I can find what device it is, is there software that will tell me etc?

Re: USB Maufunctioned
I assume you have unplugged everything to see what device is causing the issue? can you post an image? If it says hub in the error then it is likely a controller issue

Re: USB Maufunctioned
Do it the other way then, which of the many things you have connected by USB are now not working

Seriously Corey how many devices could you possible have to remove ? It has prompted you to make a post about then best way to find out what the problem is is process of elimination. Good luck :-)

Re: USB Maufunctioned
Who is the manufacturer, that might give a clue as to what it can be.
