topic VGN-SZ3HP/B USB Port issue in PCs & Accessories https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/vgn-sz3hp-b-usb-port-issue/m-p/101167#M56545 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi All<BR />Anyone had this issue with their Viao before?<BR /><BR />USB devices are recongnised and all looks good in device manager. <BR />Problem first noticed when using a USB RS232 convertor which would cause the laptop to blue screen then shut down. <BR />This would only happen when trying to transfer data via the RS232 convertor. <BR />If you try to use a USB memory stick it corrupts the data on it if you try to access it. Any files you dont try to access remain ok. <BR />Also if you copy a folder with any contents in it, it deletes the contents of the folder but the folder itself stays intact. This happens on both USB ports. Using a CF card in the PCMCIA slot all works fine. <BR />Harddrive data seems fine and transfers over LAN ok too. <BR /><BR />Checked for a virus, couldnt find anything.<BR />Any ideas? Could this be a hardware issue?<BR /><BR />Cheers<BR />Steve<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 10 Jan 2009 17:29:53 GMT BCSAudio 2009-01-10T17:29:53Z VGN-SZ3HP/B USB Port issue https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/vgn-sz3hp-b-usb-port-issue/m-p/101167#M56545 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi All<BR />Anyone had this issue with their Viao before?<BR /><BR />USB devices are recongnised and all looks good in device manager. <BR />Problem first noticed when using a USB RS232 convertor which would cause the laptop to blue screen then shut down. <BR />This would only happen when trying to transfer data via the RS232 convertor. <BR />If you try to use a USB memory stick it corrupts the data on it if you try to access it.
