[gui-talk] USB Problem

In your device manager it should show which ports are active.  I was
speaking of the software that makes the USB ports work.  Have you tried the
add hardware wizard?  See what kind of error message you get or if the
wizard doesn't solve your problem.  If you get an error message try to post
it.  I'm trying to think this out step by step but I have a rather small
brain so be patient with me.

What driver?  It isn't just the printer--it is the Victor Stream, too.  I'd
love to be able to fix this problem.

I'd be real surprised to find it's a battery problem since the machine is
only two years old.  It's more apt to be a driver problem.

How old is the computer, you may be having battery problems. Each computer
has a little battery in it that is used in start up and when they wear down
things start slowing down in start up and USB ports tend to not start.  If
it is the battery, and you are blind you will need someone to go in and
replace it.  The procedure is different for each computer but if you know
what you are doing, it is easy for a technition, should be a matter of just
opening the cover, popping it out and replacing it and then putting the
cover back on the machine.  Unless it is under other components and then you
need to know what you are doing.  Call around and ask people what they
charge for replacing a battery.

It is also a good idea to write down all the information found at start up
for the settings of the computer.
You find this by pressing I think it is F2 when you start up the computer
before Windows starts.  You will have to be able to see to do this.  But
when asking a professional to fix this situation make sure they write down
the DOS settings before they proceed.
