printer refuses to recognise the usb port

What type of device are you trying to connect to the scanner? The USB connection might not be working because the scanner can't register the device. It might also be a bad USB port. Have you tried a different device in that same port?

Have you tried to use the mouse in another computer to determine that the mouse if fully working. There are many reasons why it could be non-recognised. Has it ever worked on your system? Is it new and just a faulty mouse. It may be you could just take it back to the shop for a replacement one. Do other devices work in the same USB port. Some times my computer just stops recognising my USB keyboard yet it has been working for months. I found that it seems to be the USB port where the problem is. So not I just switch my mouse and Keyboard usb connectors around and it starts to recognise both again. I can not figure out why it stops. As another device is recognised suggesting the port is not faulty.

Need to check your User Manual for USB specifications.

USB port can only recognise certain formats, so you may need to either change your USB device's File System (e.g. convert to FAT32) or convert your files into a format the unit will recognise.

Good day sir, hi, usually its one or two ports that does not recorgnise a usb device, but if all ports does not recognise the usb device, check the CMOS setup. check this out;

• one or two ports does not recognise the usb device, this is a local fault, try to check the CMOS setup, this could also be the port itself is the faulty one having loose connection.
• all ports does not recognise the usb device, this is a system fault, check again the CMOS setup if the USB port is enabled, check the USB device itself also. to make sure use another pc to test the usb device.

A computer virus can also cause the usb port to malfunction, run an anti virus software, if possible you can reinstall the XP and test the USB port afterward.

If all else fails, you can buy a USB card and plug it on the expansion slot on your PC.

you may be having conflicts with usb devices. try temporarily removing all unnecessary devices from the usb ports. unplug and then plug the drive back in. you could try another port. if all ports are in use, then unplug another device, like the mouse and plug in to that port, then plug the mouse into the writers port. i had a similar problem with a wireless usb lan that stopped another device from being recognised. when i removed the lan and replugged the unrecognised device, windows recognised it. i obviously had to use the wireless lan, so i swapped that with the mouse and it worked.

The CD supplied does not have drivers on it. This is a flash player so your PC should recognise it automaticaly.

If this is not happening, please try installing an MTP Porting Kit via the microsoft.com website.

It is common problem on most of the PC USB ports does not recognise external hardware.It is mainly due to lack power supplied by the USB Ports..You can try with Old Pentium4 maschines.IT Reads well..

Another thing dont use extension ports to plug external HDD..always use backside on board ports.\

IF it helps rate me

you do not need to replace the whole motherboard buy a pcmcia card with usb ports if your laptop supports pcmcia cards
