Solved Lost All USB

[Cheemag]

Hello again,


(Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit)


Fitted a second HDD which work well, however I now have no USB devices.


I took care to plug all my USB peripherals into the original slots.



The keyboard and mouse are on USB and they work.


Safely Remove Hardware lists only the USB-to-serial converter, even when it's not plugged in.


USB controllers etc are all listed in Device Manager without question marks.


Unplugging all USB devices (except mouse & keyboard) then plugging one hub in gives a message that the driver is loaded and the device ready for use - but it isn't - the only drives in Explorer and Total Commander are the two hard discs and the DVD writer.


I hope it's something fairly simple. Help !

The USB-2 ones came back of their own accord shortly after I posted the above, followed by the USB-3 ones shortly after the USB-2. I did nothing to initiate this.

Peculiar behaviour !
