1.	Solve : Hi everyone, wondering how I can reset my usb driver cache??
Answer» My computer has 2 USB ports in the front, 2 blue USB ports on top and 4 USB ports in the back. (HPE h8-1022) I looked at my device manager and USB CONTROLLERS it went like this: Generic USB Hub Generic USB Hub Intel(R) 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Controller - 1C26 Intel(R) 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Controller - 1C2D Texas Instruments XHCI Controller USB COMPOSITE Device USB Mass Storage Device USB Root Hub (has a ! mark for some reason) USB Root Hub USB Root Hub I want to cleanup all the previous mouses and keyboards devices I put in one of the USB ports, but I don't know how to do it. So many of them I don't know which one to do. I would hate to having to resort to reformatting my computer. Thanks in advance. QUOTE from: thehandyman on September 01, 2011, 11:45:12 PM ...I want to cleanup all the previous mouses and keyboards devices I put in one of the USB ports... There is no reason to do this. Why do you want to do this?Just incase I find out in the future one of the drivers I installed were corrupt and I didn't know. This is a case of trying to fix things that aint broken. Right clik every instance of USB roots and hubs and select remove/uninstall... You will RECIEVE a warning message...ignore it. Re-boot...they will automatically be re-installed.

Use this: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html Press the uninstall button on each device you want to uninstall. BUT AGAIN, YOU DON'T NEED TO!
