I have an HP Pavilion dv4 Notebook running Windows 7 Home Premium and the USB ports worked fine for an HP deskjet printer and an older Casio digital camera. Then one day, the laptop decided not to recognize the Casio digital camera and gave the error message "USB Device Not Recognized" and also indicated that the device attached to the computer has malfunctioned. This prompted me to buy a new Canon digital camera. Well, a new camera did not fix the problem. Now, anything connected to either of the 2 USB ports will not be recognized by my laptop.
I've tried the suggested Microsoft below:
1: For the issue with USB devices, uninstall and re-install all the USB controllers. This lets the controllers recover the USB port from its unresponsive condition.The USB controllers represent the USB ports in Device Manager.
a. Click Start, type device manager in the Start search box and hit Enter. b. Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers. Note: You might have to scroll down the list to find this item. c. Right-click the first USB controller under Universal Serial Bus controllers, and then click Uninstall to remove it. d. Repeat the above step for each USB controller that is listed under Universal Serial Bus controllers. e. Restart the computer. After the computer starts, Windows will automatically scan for hardware changes and reinstall all the USB controllers that you uninstalled. f. Check the USB device to see whether it is working.
This did not correct the problem. Then from device manager, I tried updating drivers on all the USB controllers and root hubs. While some may have received downloaded software updates, it still did not correct the USB device not recognized problem after restarting the computer.
I got my new laptop today, and got rid of the installed Dell Crap and installed my Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.
Now under my Device Manager I've got two issues:
Base System Base System
I contacted Dell, they said they won't support my laptop since I don't have their operating system on it. All I want to know is what drivers I need. I can't believe they couldn't let me know.
I have the DV9000 series Laptop. It is the DV9235NR model (but not the DV9200 series...shows DV9000 on the bottom).
Anyways...I decided to try to upgrade the interal wireless G with a wireless N card that is from HP. It has the HP part number and everything. When I put the card in, this error comes up. I read that the bios doesn't recongnize the card. I took the card out, booted up to Windows with my old wireless card, put the computer in sleep mode, took out the old card and put the new card in. Works perfect. I know the card it good.
How can I make the new card work without having to do this? I heard about a bios hack. How is this done? Could I modify the Wifi card also? I did update to the newest bios on my laptop (dated 2008) and that didn't work. How about a bios from another series laptop?
I have an HP Pavilion dv5-1183cl that has been upgraded from Windows Vista to Windows 7 Ultimate (32bit) and I have some issues.I have four errors showing up in my device manager, three Base System Device and one Unknown Device, and I don't know what they are or where to get the drivers (since I don't know what they are). Additionally, the battery will not charge (there does not appear to be anything wrong with it physically). I am wondering if the below errors are related to the battery issue. Below are the hardware IDs for each error entry.
Base System Device (PCI bus 6, device 0, function 1): PCIVEN_197B&DEV_2382&SUBSYS_3603103C&REV_00PCIVEN_197B&DEV_2382 &SUBSYS_3603103CPCIVEN_197B&DEV_2382&CC_088000PCIVEN_197B&DEV_2382&CC_0880
I noticed that one of the best cooling pads here, the ACRyan cooling pad, ain't doing must good for this heat monster, so, I decided to DIY my own cooling device. Note that when I'm at home, I'm outputting my laptop to dual monitors, 20" and 27" Dell monitors, and connecting separate keyboard and mouse to it, speakers as well. AKA a desktop.
Materials: 1. 2 packets ice cream sticks 2. Good pair of scissors 3. White glue (hardens to clear) 4. 6V, 500mA USB Fan
Disclaimer: I'm not planning to type on the laptop while using this device. Due to the hot nature of this laptop, it's meant for cooling it while playing back 1080p movies, and games, while outputting to the monitors.
Part 1: I was eyeing this fan at my workplace, a retail store in Singapore... Wind output is amazing. Picture taken for size comparison to desktop.
Part 2: "engine" of the fan when taken apart
Part 3: Creating the base... I used stacks of squared ice cream stick cutouts for added stability.
Part 4: Checking the height clearance halfway through...
Part 5: Front view of Part 4...
Part 6: Almost done with height clearance...
Part 7: Placing "weights" to press down the glue to dry...
I was doing some work on my Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit on the XPS m1330 laptop and when i decided to restart, i got the no bootable device found message.
I ran diagnostics, no errors found.
When i put in the vista ultimate disc and NOT press anything. It will boot into windows.
When I do not have it in. It will tell me no bootable device found.
The hard drive does show in device info in bios.
Im running the chkdsk c: /f /r from command prompt in vista repair thing.
I wonder what message i will get after i complete the chkdsk.
Would reinstalling windows as a whole fix this problem?
Today I upgraded from Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit to Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit and all of my drivers were found without me needing to install anything except for one. In the device manager I have an exclamation by 'Base System Device
I cannot boot into Windows anymore. The error - Error auto-sensing internal hard disk, no bootable device available' comes up.
I've removed & reinserted the disk tray but the error persists.Even in the BIOS the hard drive doesn't show up and cannot be detected by Diagnostics either.
I removed it from the laptop and connected it to my desktop and its working fine. So my guess is the problem is not with the disk. The laptop is out of warranty.
My Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop is missing two driver Base System Device is what they are called. I have downloaded every driver on the site for this laptop yet I still am missing these two. I re-installed Windows Vista Home Premium and now I'm missing drivers that I can't find.
Dell offered to replace my XPS m1330 that I got from the outlet because I've already had 2 screens replaced(got laptop 3 monts ago). Should I keep it or exchange it for the SXPS 13?
I'm concerned about the overly blown up heat issues. Is the heat that bad with just the 9400m or is it only for the 9500m.
What other issues should I be concerned about the SXPS 13?
What is the average battery life(balanced, 50% brightness, browsing, youTube videos .....
I recently installed Windows 7 on my vostro 1015. All the drivers were installed correctly but the 'Base System Device' driver couldn't be installed. I tried the 'Search Automatically for the updated driver software' option but no driver could be found. where can I find the 'Base System Device' driver?
I have Dell XPS m1330, and I'm having problem to perform factory restore. At the moment I have windows server 2008 installed for testing purpose. When I tried to perform factory restore by running D:ToolsPCRestore.exe on the recovery partition, it fails when reformatting the harddrive (see screenshot below)
I then tried the other method by rebooting, and pressing F8 when dell logo appears. However I couldn't find a "System repair" menu in there.
Is there any other method I can try to perform factory restore?
I have a machine (used for creating master images) with all the drivers loaded. I perform a last CloneZilla image (before doing the sysprep). When I restore the image (to the same machine) the Ricoh Card reader has status of Base System Device under Other Devices. I have tried reapply the drivers, deleting the device with drivers and rebooting so that the machine can redetect the device. No luck, just stays at Base System Device.
trying to locate the "Base System Device" driver for my laptop HP Elitebook 8570p, I have google and tried different .exe files but none of them worked, downloaded all the driver from the HP driver page for this model but no avail.
I currently have a HP ProBook 4540s Notebook PC(Energy Star) laptop and found that my Base System Device Drivers are missing. I have been trying very hard to find them but to no avail.
I have probook 4540s and i installed windows 7 prof. (X64) i have the following problems in the device manager:
1- base system device (Location: PCI Slot 2 (PCI bus 3, device 0, function 0)) 2- base system device (Location: PCI Slot 2 (PCI bus 3, device 0, function 3)) 3- unknown device (location: on PCI bus)
I'm using HP ProBook 4730s, product A1E71EA. I recently installed windows 7 ultimate x64 and I went to install my drivers. There i have two of them that say 'base system device' when i try to automatically update them using upade driver it says that it cannot do it.Also i have there one that says network controller, one is universal serial bus, pci simple communication and an unknown device.
Just a few weeks ago, I received a new DELL E6400 with Intel Graphics Card.
Since day 1, I started to notice a strange behavior when I connect an external monitor to the VGA port of my laptop. No matter the resolution, the monitor shows horizontal and vertical blurry lines just like if it was a refresh rate issue.
I reported the issue to Dell, and they replaced my monitor, but the lines are still there...I checked the refresh rate and updated the video card drivers with no luck...
Have any of you experienced something like this?
I'm not using a docking station and I'm running windows XP with extended desktop...
I bought dell n5110 in 2011.i played many games.last week AW also played.but i got fan problem . (My fan is didnt turn on and lap was shutdown when overheated). Then i remove motherboard and i spin fan some rounds and remove bios battery and re assemble .
then fan was turned on.then i install win 8.1 and install nvidia 340 graphic driver.but when i open nvidia settings display "you are not currently using a display attached to an nvidia gpu" then I tried different drivers-301, 305, 320, 327, 370 but same problem have.
I also tried with win 8 same way. but have same problem.(before having those problem I have installed win 8 and i worked with it) though I remove cimos battory bios didnt reset.
Recently I did a clean windows 732 bit installation on my Hp dv2500 notebook because i was having some problem with the original vista OS. Anyway I noticed that, under device manager 3 drivers were missing...namely:
I've just recently upgraded my system from XP to Win 7 and I've been unable to find drivers for two "base system devices". I'm on a Compaq Presario V3440TU and my CPU is a Core 2 Duo T5300, and chipset is Intel 945GM.
The missing drivers are most probably for the Ricoh Card reader in my laptop, since I remember facing the same problem while re-installing XP once...
I have Accer aspire e1-571 i want to know abaut base system device, i have installed all drivers in my laptop but base system device driver pending i want to knw how to install it. os win 7 pro 64 bit
