USB trouble, help!!

[Ruitsz]

hey, it seems that i might have some conflict with my USB driver, dunno if i picked up a virus that my scanner doesn't see or its just conflicting with a recent update or installation i must have made. If u have any ideas on how to tackle this issue i would appreciate it.

PS: forgot to mention that it leaves a log on my events and when i try to connect anything to the USBs, it lags my PC like crazy, i even have to reboot it


Thanks
From your noob poster, Ruitsz

Is it just one USB port or all of them?

Also, this is exactly why we need the technology forum back. Every PC gamer needs help with hardware or software at some point and all of us share an interest in it.

That's windows for you. It could be a virus, or perhaps failing hardware. It's really hard to say. Chances are though, it's just windows being weird.

You could try running a different virus scanner...see if it picks anything up.

try reinstalling those programs..

lol hi alex hows life

 

[Krovvy]

So it is all of the ports and not just one that's acting up?

Honestly I would just reformat, it's the quick fix, though I'm a reformat ****.

ye viva f*ing windows.

Hey mike, lifes good, still in college, how about you? you never say anything on msn anymore. Btw me and my band bought website, which im building right now, so untill further notice u can laugh at the "under construction" page =) http://www.daysleeper.ca

Anyways the problem with the usb i traced it down to a trojan, it seems that i have fixed the files but it has infected/damaged the Usb drivers, anyway i can find the make and where to getthe drivers from?


thnx for all the help, and Mike u have no life dude. 9000 posts??? like wth..lol.. peace =)

Sorry but I found that really funny. Maybe just cuz I'm a computer science major.

Right click My Computer and go to Properties>Hardware>Device Manager and see what it says under Universal Serial Bus Controller. Right click whatever it says and go to Properties>Drivers and click Update Driver.

aww man,, thats so funny now that u mention it??!!..hey lets make fun of ppl who dont know about everything......sounds like fun..........!!??? bet ur american.

I didn't think it was funny because you don't know **** about computers, I thought it was funny because you sound like a retard when you talk.

 

[Ruitsz]

wow again, thnx for the help, and how did u help me anyways?? ohh ye putting ppl down is helping in the states..cheers.

Why do your type of ppl even talk? just go crawl back to your cubicle and stop wasting my time.

 

[SweatyOgre]

Well I was just trying to help since you didn't have the common sense enough to type what kind of file you need in google, but I guess you would have had to actually use your brain to do that. Coming from an ignorant ass who's racist towards americans, I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

The only time that's been wasted here is mine for trying to help someone without a brain.

 

[Lizardbreath]

Did u seriously just flame somebody who was giving you some advice on how to fix your problem. That's pretty messed up.

Anyways, sounds to me like your driver = taking the ****s.

 

[Ntrik_]

LOLyou just got owned alex

yea why did you do that to ppl that tried to help you haha

*Pats FlashFLores on the back*

I guess this is what happens when you try to help people.
