How To Install Usb Mass Storage Device Driver Windows Xp



Assume that you want to prevent users from connecting to a USB storage device that is connected to a computer that is running Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, or Windows 2000. This article discusses two methods that you can use to do this.


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\UsbStor When you do this, the USB storage device does not work when the user connects the device to the computer. To set the Start value, follow these steps:




How To Install Usb Mass Storage Device Driver Windows Xp



At first my USB storage device did not work, but after i did a reinstal the driveras mass storage device, W98SE (dutch version)W98SE worked fine with my usb stick.(device manager usb, properties) Verry happy now


I was getting extremely frustrated after days of trying to find the proper USB drivers for my Gateway Armada e500 laptop running a fresh install of Windows 98 SE until i ran across this site purely by accident. I figured I would give this a try because I was starting to get desperate at this point. I had already gone through over a dozen CD-R disks in an attempt to find the right drivers and had one more left. Took a chance and burned this software to my very last CD and installed it. IT WORKED!! It read and installed my 16gb flash drive immediately. No more burning disks to copy files to my laptop. THANK YOU!!!


This was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for posting this information. I use an old Toshiba laptop for retro gaming. I wanted to connect my external 500 Mb HDD to the one USB port on this laptop, I was doubtful if this would work, but as soon as I installed this driver and rebooted, my external was detected as a mass storage device and works great.


If the PC has USB 3.0 ports and is running a version of Windows earlier than Windows 8, the host controller drivers are provided by the PC manufacturer. If you need to reinstall those drivers, you must get them from the manufacturer.


In Windows 8, the Microsoft-provided set of USB 3.0 drivers (USB driver stack) work with most host controllers. Microsoft USB 3.0 driver stack does not work with the Fresco Logic FL1000 controller. To determine if you have an FL1000 controller, open Device Manager and expand Universal Serial Bus controllers. View the controller properties by selecting and holding (or right-clicking) the controller node. On the Details tab, select Hardware Ids property in the list. If the hardware ID starts with PCI\VEN_1B73&DEV_1000, it is the FL1000. For that controller, download and install drivers from your PC or controller card manufacturer.


In the example below, a SuperSpeed USB storage device and USB Audio device are both connected to a USB 3.0 hub. You can see the storage device is downstream of the SuperSpeed hub and the audio device is downstream of the USB 2.0 hub.


A different set of binaries is loaded for each type of host controller. It's important to understand that the USB driver stack that Windows loads correlates to the type of host controller, not to the connected device's speed.


If the PC's USB 2.0 ports use a companion controller, the host controller to which the port is routed depends on device speed. For example, a low speed device connects through a UHCI or an OHCI controller, and uses the USBUHCI or USBOHCI driver. The PC routes a high speed device to an EHCI controller, therefore, Windows uses the USBEHCI driver.


Different device speeds do not determine the driver that is loaded for the controller. However, different device speeds might determine which controller is used. The controller always uses the same driver.


If the USB 3.0 device is a storage device, Windows Explorer shows similar messages when the volume label is selected, as shown below. Note that the View -> Details pane must be selected for the message to be visible.


If you are writing a device driver, the USBView tool, included in the Windows Driver Kit (WDK), is very useful. For the Windows 8 WDK, Microsoft updated USBView to display SuperSpeed USB information. You can use this tool to determine whether or not your device is operating at SuperSpeed. This image shows a USB 3.0 device operating at SuperSpeed in USBView.


If you are a device driver developer, the USB driver stack exposes a new IOCTL that is called IOCTL_USB_GET_NODE_CONNECTION_INFORMATION_EX_V2, which you can use to query speed information for USB 3.0 devices.


To reuse the same PDO and to ensure that the device experience is unchanged whether the device is reinserted into the same port or a new port, hardware vendors must store a serial number on their device. According to Windows Hardware Certification Program requirements, the serial number must be unique for all devices that share the device installation identifier.


All existing client drivers should continue work, as is, when a low, full, or high-speed device is connected to a USB 3.0 port. In Windows 8, we have ensured compatibility with existing client drivers.


The USB 3.0 driver stack maintains IRQL levels, caller context, and error status; retry frequency and timing when interacting with devices, and more to make sure existing drivers continue to work. It is still very important to test.


The USB Attached SCSI (UAS) protocol is a new mass storage protocol designed to improve performance over the established USB mass storage protocol, Bulk-Only-Transport (BOT). It does so by reducing protocol overhead, supporting SATA native command queuing (NCQ) and by processing multiple commands in parallel. To do this, UAS makes use of a new USB 3.0 feature for bulk transfers called streams.


For Windows 8, Microsoft includes a new mass storage class driver, Uaspstor.sys which uses the UAS protocol. Because streams is new to USB 3.0, so Uaspstor.sys can only use streams when the hardware supports streams (a SuperSpeed USB device is connected to an xHCI host controller). The driver also includes support for software streams, so it can also load for devices operating at high-speed, regardless of the host type.


If you connect a mass storage device to Windows 8 and that device supports UAS, Windows loads Uaspstor.sys. In some cases, there might be known issues with hardware streams on a specific xHCI host controller or known issues with a device's UAS protocol implementation. In those cases, Windows falls back to the BOT protocol and loads the Usbstor.sys driver instead.


The setup class USB (ClassGuid = 36fc9e60-c465-11cf-8056-444553540000) is reserved only for USB host controllers and USB hubs, and must not be used for other device categories. Using this setup class incorrectly may cause the device driver to fail Windows logo testing.


At times, the hardware can be electronically disconnected from the Universal Serial Bus. For example, when storage media is removed from the USB reader, the USB reader can emulate an electronic disconnect and reconnect when the media is reinserted. In this case, the C3 transitions can occur because no USB devices are on the host controller.


The only alternative available in Windows XP and later operating systems is to support USB Selective Suspend. This feature lets a driver suspend a USB device that it controls when the device becomes idle, even though the system itself remains in a fully operational power state (S0). Selective Suspend is especially powerful if all USB function drivers support it. If even one driver does not support it, the CPU cannot enter C3. For additional information on Selective Suspend, see the WDK.


This driver can selectively suspend devices on computers that are running Windows XP Service Pack 2 and later versions of Windows. The driver requires the Bluetooth radio to set the self-powered and remote wake bits in the configuration descriptor. The driver selectively suspends (D2) the Bluetooth radio when no active Bluetooth connections exist.


This driver can selectively suspend an HID device. It is your responsibility to trigger the remote wake signal on all device state changes. To enable Selective Suspend in the HID stack, the SelectiveSuspendEnabled registry value must be enabled for the specific VID+PID of the device. For examples, see Input.inf.


This driver can selectively suspend (D3) storage devices on systems that support Windows 8 Connected Standby, when those systems go into Connected Standby. Like HID, there is a registry override to enable selective suspend on all Windows 8 systems.


Note Because Windows 2000 and Windows XP were released before USB 2.0 hardware was available, the drivers were released for those operating systems in the service packs. To install drivers:


Although it might still be possible to load Usbhub.sys as the parent driver for the composite device on these and later versions of Windows, Microsoft does not recommend it because it might cause hardware compatibility errors. You should use Usbccgp.sys instead.


A composite USB device - also referred to as a multifunction USB device - exposes multiple functions, each of which can be treated as an independent device. The system loads the USB generic parent driver, Usbccgp.sys, to serve as the parent driver for eaech of the device's functions. The USB generic parent driver enumerates the composite device's functions as though they were separate USB devices and then creates a PDO and constructs a device stack for each function.


If a USB device is generating the Code 10 error, uninstall every device under the Universal Serial Bus controllers hardware category in Device Manager as part of the driver reinstall. This includes any USB Mass Storage Device, USB Host Controller, and USB Root Hub.


Properly reinstalling a driver, as in the instructions linked above, isn't the same as simply updating a driver. A full driver reinstall involves completely removing the currently installed driver and then letting Windows install it over again from scratch.


Unlike with Windows Vista Ultimate and Windows Server 2008, you needto prepare mass storage drivers (Intel SATA AHCI driver) before installingthe Windows XP operating system and then install the mass storage driversduring OS installation. 2ff7e9595c
