WTF is going on?!

[Radical Dreamer]

Ok, this is a little bit weird, when I plug in a usb device, windoze detects it and everything is fine until I try to use it, then it becomes "undetected"

I know that it is not the device that I am using because I tried my scanner and my usb game pad.

The scanner freezes after I try to scan and the game pad freezes around 5 seconds after I press a button.

I have an AZ11 motherboad

Have you installed the USB filter for your Operating System?

I am having close to exact same problem. I have never had a usb problem with that machine. But I installed WIN98SE and it messes up. We need some USB guru.

Try installing this, as it solves a hell of a lot of USB related problems.

Oh! that, yeah I already went there and got that but It did not seem to work either, could the usb controller be bad? If so where can I get a good card with some on it

I just noticed one other thing aobut this issue, I was having problems with my pc hanging at shutdown but I unplugged my usb stuff since it was not working and the problem went completely away.

just fixed the exact same problem with a scanner cutting out on an FIC AZ11 mobo. Download the latest bios, it actually states in the release that it fixes various USB issues with scanners/printers.

I've also seen some problems with this happening on underpowered USB ports which I fixed by using an external USB Hub with its own power supply.

Okay I know it's a little confusing.. .

I usually don't post to this forum (no reason...) but I do post to the mobo/bios forum - although my post this time is a bit mixed...

Hope it helps you..

It's split topics like this one that make me very greatful to be running dual monitors. Nothing quite like being able to compare two threads at once full screen!
