Okay, I've tried everything so I'm coming here.

I've plugged in my MP3 Player, PC Controller and my Printer and my Computer isn't registering any of them on my Computer.

They're all USB and they aren't working. Can anyone help me?

1) Operating System?
2) Have you checked if your USB ports are ok?
3)Is it USB 2.0?

1) WinXP
2) Apparently, my Ports are operational but they aren't registering anything I plug into them! My MP3 Player is an example.
3) Yes.

Hum, intresting. mp3 Player you say?

Printer You say?

Same problem you say?

Start by Installing the drivers.

Already did, Koala.

It's just not registering.

It's acting as if it isn't plugged in, when it is!

Did you go to control panel, and then to add new hardware?...BTW happy birthday Sorgo.

Oh right, If you unplugged and replugged in a Different port, it will give you that error, It killed me a few times before.

Especially for printers.

I've never gotten that error before and with my laptop, my USB ports are all I use for my mouse, my camera, and my iPod....and I always plug them into different ports.

Okay, I plugged it out of the Port in the front of my PC and tried to plug it into one in the back and this nice little message popped up.

Okay... Damn.... Wasn't expecting it to be that small.

It basically says it doesn't recognize the USB Device and that the device has malfunctioned.

So there is something wrong with my Printer, Controller and MP3 Player?

Nope. My MP3 Works fine, which is proof that there is something else going down.

The ports in the back seemed f*cked but the one in the front is recognizing my USB 2.0 Hub and the MP3 Player, but it isn't recognizing shit on it's end.

I get that message sometimes when my one port decides to not recognize my mouse....it's something with the port.

I don't know how to fix it though, I just don't use that one 😬

Go to the control panel, add new hardware, and scan for hardware or something like that.

Yeah, but that doesn't help any if it's a problem with the port itself....

It should say it's malfunctioned but it's saying everything is good.

The front port on my PC may be working. My MP3 Player recognizes it but my computer is like "Nope, nothing plugged in."

I've gotten that message on the side USB port on my laptop with my mouse, so I just plugged it into the back and it's worked fine *shrugs* sometimes it'll be able to detect it, other times it won't.

Installing the drivers does the exact same thing....which he said he did already.

He never said the drivers weren't working...
