2. Click the Hardware tab.
3. Click the Device Manager button.
4. Click the plus (+) sign to the left of Universal Serial Bus controllers.
5. Right-click the device listed under Universal Serial Bus controller and select Uninstall.
6. Click OK to confirm the removal of the device.

Please note, repeat Steps 5 and 6 until all the devices under Universal Serial Bus Controller are removed.

7. Shut down the computer.

CAUTION: Ensure that the Shut Down option is selected, instead of the Restart option.

8. Wait for 5 seconds and then restart the computer. When the computer restarts, a "Windows has detected new or added hardware" message window will open.

Now connect the USB devices like mouse, video camera, your external usb hard disk...usb hubs...whatever you like and the drivers should install automatically.

Tip: It is always recommended to connect the main usb devices at the rear end usb port, as they require more power to initiate.

If you have a spare keyboard that you know is functional, you can try connecting it to your PC.

If a known functional keyboard does not work, there may be a problem with your PS2/USB port that your keyboard plugs into.

If you are brave enough to go into the BIOS or SETUP in your computer, you can check if there are settings there for your keyboard as well.

Go to HP Support & Drivers.

If you need more help come back.

Post / thumbs / testimonial are welcome!

Hi,

Assuming that you didn't do a fresh install of windows, Do this:

When the blue screen with the HP Invent logo

appears, press the F10 key on the keyboard. (You

have only a few seconds to press the F10 key
before the normal startup process continue

Then Select Full System Recovery (which will erase whatever you had in computer such as personal files, etc). Pretty much your system will be back as Factory Image
Thanks

i would try replacing the hard disk drive SATA cable , worth about $5, founjd at any computer store
actually bring the drive with you and ask them to do a courtesy test

What you mean by product key? Your machine went on crash?

are you getting beeps during post?

There really isn't many places it could be. Look with a flashlight and fish it out or even tilt the PC until it comes out. Memory is pretty sturdy and it shouldn't damage it.
Thats about all you can do. Some computers you can remove both side panels this may make it easier to get the memory out.
