    Thank you SO MUCH! All my USB ports were dead/dying, so I plugged in an old PS/2 mouse, found your video, and now my ports work again! :)

    I want to thank you SO MUCH!!!!!!! Holy Cow! I've been struggling to get my Silhouette Cameo 3 reconnected. It kept saying not found, error, and I had JUST used it the other day. I replaced the USB connection cord. I bought a Bluetooth adapter, EVERYTHING. I was about to fork out another 300 for a new Cameo, and I came up on this. I figured it was worth a shot. I followed it step-by-step...restart, and guess what?!?! EVERYTHING WORKING! Thank you again!

    Happy that this vid is silent! but a TIP for anyone making this type of video - stop waving the mouse cursor around and swiping it back+forth across the item whose name you're obscuring before you shift to another screen leaving us having to freeze frame to try to see what you're pointing at. It doesn't help to wave the mouse around or use that stupid puffball effect on the cursor either. Keep it steady and pause whilst viewers take in what you're doing.

    This worked. I lost my mouse, keyboard and all of my usb ports after installing a piece of 'safe' software. I used remote desktop to get into my computer so I could fix it (just a tip). Also, this is a good approach because it reinstalls your old drivers, the ones that work with your pc.

    If you've watched lots of these videos but still can't get you're USB Card Reader working I have one more suggestion.
    I went to my motherboard manufacturer's website (ASUS for me) and downloaded the lastest chipset drivers for my model.
    Bingo.
    I finally got it working again.
    It seems to be a Windows Update that caused the problem. Hopefully your manufacturer has an updated driver too.

    I have a Peugeot 207 and it is only picking up 2 of the discs on my USB stick. They all play in other vehicles.
