Windows 10: Driver malfunctioning devices not working properly

I'm a laptop user and decided to use a new keyboard and mouse instead of the built in keyboard and a touchpad. The keyboard is working fine but I'm having trouble using the mouse, it's updating the driver then suddenly stop working, restarting it won't do any fix, I tried putting it on the keyboards socket and same issue. Is the mouse somehow broken? Or is it regarding the installation? Please help

usb device not recognized (malfunction) - Printer

Hope somebody can help a non-techy here.
I have a canon IX4000 printer, and had been using it without problem. The next day (having touched nothing), I got a USB device not recognized warning, and that it has a malfunction (this is under Windows XP).

I've tried the following:
- deinstalling all USB drivers under device manager
- system restore to several days prior, when I knew the printer was working
- trying a different USB lead (tested the lead on another device, so know it works)
- plugged lead into every other available USB port on the computer (front and back).
- tried plugging it into another computer (comes up with the same malfunction warning)
- deinstalled the printer drivers, downloaded and reinstalled them.

Nothing I've tried works. I know the printer functions as I can start it up under service mode and print off test pages without problems, but my computer just won't have it. Could it be a hardware failure, and if not is there anything else I can try that isn't listed above?

Really grateful to anyone who can reply. *Smile

Loss of audio device/driver

Hi Malcolm,

The red X icon that you can see on the system tray may be caused by a hardware issue and the speakers are not working or in most of the cases there is a software malfunction after an update of the operating system due to the fact that not all the drivers
you had are compatible with the new Windows 10. We suggest that you try to connect another speaker and see if the same issue will occur. If the issue persists, you may run hardware and devices troubleshooter by following the steps below:

• Type “Troubleshooting” in the Search bar and press Enter.
• Click on “View All” in the top left corner.
• This will display the list of troubleshooters which are built-in in the computer. You can click on Hardware and Devices from the list and you can run the troubleshooter.

Lastly, you may also go to the device manufacturer's website to update the driver.

Feel free to get back to us if you need further assistance.
