usb problem
usb problem
T61 - windows 7 32bit
i cloned old hard drive onto new samsung 830 SSD, not sure if that is related.
now the T61 does not show any connected USB device that i have tried - mouse, SSD backup drive etc.
the devices light up and i hear a sound from the T61 when plugging them in - but they do not appear in disk manager or my computer, and do not run on any of the 3 USB's
i have already tried uninstalling the USB drivers and rebooting. i also got latest chipset software.
it is not the devices because they work fine on another computer

Re: usb problem
update: i tested with the old hard drive, and USB does work. so it must be related to the clone SSD drive.
i had used 'copy disk' from 'minitool partition wizard'.

2d update
formatted SSD and this time cloned my other pc (which is also a win 7 32 bit). result: i now have win 64 bit that sees all 4mb ram! weird.
still no usb function though.

Re: usb problem
The only thing that I'm going to say, at the risk of becoming boringly predictable, is that cloning an image from a rotational drive to a SSD is not a good idea.
Fresh install is the way to go in my experience.
