My friend has a Dell Inspiron 1525 running Windows Vista 32 bit. The computer has become slow and had some other issues so I restored it to the factory state using the hidden partition. Both before and after the restore they are constantly getting a message that says "USB Device Not Recognized."Clicking the popup gives me this message... "One Of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it." The thing is nothing is plugged in to any of the USB ports. The only time I had something attached to them was *before* the restore when I connected a flash drive and also a external hard drive to back up their files which worked just fine. I checked Device Manager and all is ok there... nothing is missing, all drivers are in place. This is very annoying and the popup warning about the USB device is constantly popping up. Any help to remedy this situation is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
