USB issues

Flound3r · Posted: Sun Jul 01, 2007 11:08 am Post subject: USB issues

Sometimes when I put my flashdrive in (Sandisk Mini Cruzer) it doesn't register at all. The light doesn't turn on at the tip of the flashdrive and the machine seems to not make any attempt at recognizing it. I told the workers there, and they didn't know anything about it (big surprise....) Then later they figure out that you should open up the door on the machine and unplug/replug the USB thing, I don't know how to explain it. Yay, problem solved.

So I go like a week later, same thing happens. I tell a worker what to do, she does it, but it doesn't work. Same problem. Later that night I ask a different worker to try, and this time it does work. Is there something wrong with my machine?

TL;DR version: Somethings weird about my USB thing on my machine. It only works every once in a while. Is it broken?

EDIT: I'm not talking about my flashdrive not working...that's NOT the problem. My flashdrive is fine. It's the machines USB thing that's screwing up

hmmmm....strange problem there...i don't think the usb is broken, but do other ones work any better? Aslo, my machine has been having some USB problems, so i'll look into yours as well! Have you checked both 1st and 2nd player slots?

Yeah, they're both dead. It's weird though because when they unplug/replug and it fixes the problem, it's like nothing ever happened.

make sure your usb works with your computer

i can remember on my machine, the usb ports got fried because someone was playing and had static, went to grab his card, and shocked both the ports and the card. If that's the case, you'll have to get a new hub. One way to make sure it never happens again is to grab the bar before touching anything on the machine itself.

My USB works fine. Where can I get a new hub?

I have no idea, the arcade took care of that.

AFAIK, most four port hubs will work with ITG, although that doesn't mean that they all fit.

Take that shitty U3 Program off.

That might be it.

Edit: Wait, do the MINIs even have U3, or just the micros?

I don't know what you're talking about...

If you mean the stuff that's preloaded onto flashdrives, I deleted that a long time ago. By the way...

IT'S NOT MY FLASHDRIVE! IT'S THE MACHINE!
