Hi.
If you get code 10 (device not recognized), then the problem is either USB, device drivers or hardware. The code 43 means that the device cannot be installed, and it is a resultant of code 10.
Try the following:
Troubleshooting drivers problems.
Ensure you have installed device drivers before connecting the devices.
Check in device manager and see if the installed device is marked with a yellow circle.
Ensure that you granted system access when asked during driver installation.
Troubleshooting USB problems.
Do a power reset. Turn off the laptop. Disconnect power adapter and remove main laptop battery. Reassemble and restart after five minutes or so. This may fix some USB troubles given by electrostatic charges in hardware.
Go to device manager. Remove, and then allow reinstall of the laptop's USB in the device list.
Do a definitive test by starting Windows from optical disk, then try installing the USB devices in the new OS. You will still need to install the drivers if required. The installation done on the system started from CD will not use or affect the system files in C drive . See
Bart's Preinstalled Environment (BartPE) bootable live windows CDIf problem does not occurr using Bart PE, then the problem is the system. In that case do a Windows upgrade setup. This kind of installation preserves files and settings.
If all that does not work, and the problem occurs using a bootable disk, then the problem is hardware. In that case it is usually RAM or main board. Test using different RAM.
