    Unable to communicate with USB serial device.


    Hello, I'm unable to communicate with a USB serial device, namely an Arduino Nano. Under device manager, USB serial has a ! symbol, and it reports that no driver is installed. I've tried searching for drivers, but nothing seems to be recognised as a suitable driver when I try to update it. Does anyone have a solution?Regards, Stuart

    :)

  3. 3.0 USB not compatible with USB 2.0 printer

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community. We understand the inconvenience caused and will assist you.

    As the USB 3.0 ports are unable to detect the USB 2.0 device, the issue might be with the USB drivers. I suggest you to update the driver by following the steps provided below:

    • Press Windows key + X, select Device Manager.
    • Expand Universal Serial Bus Controller.
    • Right click on the driver, select Update Driver Software and follow the on-screen prompts.

    If the issue still persists, follow the steps provided below:

    • Press Windows key + X, select Device Manager.
    • Expand Universal Serial Bus Controller.
    • Right click on the driver, select Uninstall.
    • Restart the system and check for status.

    Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

    windows can`t communicate with epson 7620 scanner using usb

    Hi Lake,

    Thank you for your response.

    As per the description, I understand that the Epson device/program is not compatible with the USB 3.0.

    I suggest you to connect it to the USB 2.0 and check if the same issue persists.

    I suggest you to disable and re-enable the USB controllers. The following steps will uninstall all the USB controllers and then re-install them:

    • Right click on Start, and then click
      Run.
    • Type devmgmt.msc and then click
      OK
      . Device Manager opens.
    • Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers.
    Note: You might have to scroll down the list to find this item.

    • Right click the first USB controller under
      Universal Serial Bus controllers
      , and then click Uninstall to remove it.
    • Repeat step 4 for each USB controller that is listed under
      Universal Serial Bus controllers.
    Note: Restart the computer. After the computer starts, Windows will automatically scan for hardware changes and reinstall all the USB controllers that you uninstalled.
