I bought a LogiLink USB 2.0 PCI Card, 4 + 1 Port , works great, installed without problems. The removable archives if connected the PC recognizes them without problems, the problem occurs instead if I use a USB extension cable.
This problem has never happened to me.
Since the PC is positioned in a certain way, it is inconvenient to move it every time to insert the removable disk. In fact, when I used the USB 1.1 port there were no problems using the extension cable, so I didn't have to marry the PC every time.
Now that I have bought and installed this USB 2.0 card, I don't understand why if I use the extension the removable disk is not recognized, but if I insert it directly into the USB card it recognizes it!
The first time I used the USB extension cable, the device was detected as "unknown" and was "disabled".
So I reactivated it and restarted the PC.
This time, the device was always unknown but with a yellow exclamation mark.
In the information it says:
The device is not present, not functioning correctly, or not all necessary drivers are installed
(code 10
).
I tried to manually install the drivers, but the problem remains.
Very strange because if I do not use the USB extension the problem does not occur and everything works perfectly!
