jonnoyeo111 Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Ok, just got a new system. specs are : Conroe e6600 OCZ Gold XTX 2GB XFX 8800GTX Gigabyte DQ6 3x WD 320GB 1x 74GB Raptor Problem is, i've installed Windows XP Home, 3 times now trying to get my mouse working. I've tried a PS2 mouse, and a USB mouse. All do not work. It gets recognized but says that the hardware malfunctioned. First i thought it was something to do with USB, as it said something about looking for usbehic.sys but my Logitech G15 works fine on it.... I really have NO IDEA wat is wrong....and i wanna play on this machine!!! =( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Encrypted_God Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Is the XP OS a legit copy? Reason why I ask is because I've done some searching using google and some had reported that they got that error using a bogus copy of XP. Another resource you may want to look into is in microsofts' web-site. Try this; http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...B;EN-US;Q329632 to start you off. If that isn't enough, just google more and read up. There are vast amounts of info regarding that issue you have. Good luck! *EDIT* Based on this http://www.osronline.com/ddkx/buses/usbsystem_3rjb.htm It's a USB 2 driver that didn't ship with the original Windows XP disc. It only became available when SP1 came out. I suggest slipstreaming Service Pack 2 with your Windows XP disc, then reinstall Windows. If you can try disabling you USB in the BIOS?

Encrypted_God Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 I never 'explained' any resolutions to him. I am merely giving him possible avenues to explore to help him resolve his issue. So yeah, I agree. How does one explain it? Maybe you can take a stab at it? :thumbs-up: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdy284 Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 i can't explain it...if i could...i'd have a solution. but since both PS/2 & USB mice work...but then "malfunction" yet his G15 works fine...i have no idea where to even start.

Encrypted_God Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Exactly...Just do some google'ng and you'll find some interesting info on it. Furthermore that malfunction "COULD" be a reason why I asked if he was using a legit copy of his OS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
