    Hi People

     

    I have the same error message:

     

    ”One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it”

     

    This is a Toshiba laptop, and it effects all USB ports the same way.

     

    The computer was running XP Home originally.

     

    When I plug in a USB mouse I get the error, the mouse doesn’t light up and doesn’t work.

     

    If I plug in a USB Memory stick XP will Freeze and I have to shut down and restart.

     

     

    I disconnected power and battery to try to reset some memory – it didn’t help.

     

    I have uninstalled the USB drivers several times – they auto install successfully.

     

    I run Regedit and created a USB Key and a DWORD value called DisableSelectiveSuspend, set that value to “1”.

     

    I ran some test program that I found and it says that both Hardware and Software for the USB’s is OK.

     

     

     

    I formatted the hard drive and installed XP Professional.

     

    All the same fault.

     

    Finally I upgraded to Vista – and still faulty.

     

    Now the USB Memory doesn’t freeze the computer – just get the same error.
