Usb problem in windows 8

Hi

I am hoping someone can solve this problem for me,I have searched high and low on the net,deleted and reinstalled devices and drivers,reset windows amd even reinstalled vista and then windows 8 upgrade and still i get this strange problem,

The problem is when i put a flash pen in the front or rear usb ports (all are usb 2) everything is ok,in my computer flashpen drive shows up and device manager shows working fine,until i try to transfer a music or video file to or from the usb flash pen.

I either get it start to transfer,then slow down and stop or it just says calculating and nothing happens or i get a dialog box asking me if i wanna retry as file is missing?

I have reformatted all the flashpens in fat32 and ntfs formats and still same problems,pens all work fine on my laptop.

This happens on every usb port,I upgraded to win 8 from vista and didnt have this problem before.

I have had to use windows default drivers or download updated drivers from intel like latest chipset etc as the disc that came with my motherboard does not work on windows 8,it just shows nothing to install.and foxconn website dosent have usb drivers to download?

my videos and music are on a seperate internal hard drive.

Everything else works fine on the pc

Any help is really appreciated

with regards

Dave

Fat 32 is only needed for XP machines, using on 7 or 8, NTFS. Most of the problems described like yours tend to be permissions related, try checking the sharing settings for your music/video folders, shared with everyone and not marked read only...also power settings can kick in and stop a transfer while unattended. :thumb:

Go to an individual file and check properties to see if it is 'Read Only'...try right clik Copy, go to pendrive, paste...does that work?

If you can paste it on the desktop, then the pendrive is set 'Read Only'...stands to reason, if the machine can see the pendrive, then the problem isn't with the usb, has to be security or permission...

Right click on the pendrive in Computer and select properties, what does it tell you?

In the general tab, does it show the correct amount of space available? In Security tab, does it say Everyone and all but Special Permissions checked? Are you using Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media from the system tray or right click the drive and Eject before removing from the USB?

try format ntfs...

1. command prompt
2. diskpart

3. list disk
4. select disk 3 (assuming that your pendrive is disk 3)
5. clean
6. format fs=ntfs quick

ok well i reinstalled a clean copy of windows vista and still have the same problem with front and rear panel usb.

could it be the motherboard? the original disc that came with the board only has a lan driver,hd audio driver and chipset driver but no usb driver.

i changed the case a few weeks back maybe i moved something or installed the front usb and card reader wires the wrong way round i remember there was 2 usb inputs on the motherboard.they were called inputs usb1 and usb2.and i changed the cmos battery at the sametime and upgraded the ram and cpu and reset bios to optimised defaults .

its all very strange :(

It could be this "KB976972". Its a very rare configuration in combination with W8.
This bug is still not solved in Windows 8 as far as i know.
You can´t use the W7 drivers. They are not certified for W8 and can´t be installed.
So there i no solution for this yet, sorry.
