Guys I have landed up with a windows 2008 r2 system with corrupt USB 3.0 drivers which is crashing my system. I want to get rid of the drivers - is removing every USB root device which shows up in device manager the way to go around this? And then reboot? Or are there other things I have to do as well? Thanks

Hello, do you have BSODs? If yes then use Microsoft Skydrive to upload dump files (c:\windows\minidumps). Once done, post a link here. You can also contact Microsoft CSS. For changes you performed, you can cancel them by restoring your server from a backup that dates before the appearance of your problem. Also, uninstall all applications that you recently installed.

Here you go - https://www.yousendit.com/download/M0Rya3ZGT001R094dnc9PQ Password - msft Do most folks create a system backup every few days or especially before installing some big application? That way, there would always be an easy way to go back to that restore point Thanks!

Hi, Uninstall all the USB controllers in Device Manger and reboot the computer will reinstall the USB drivers. Based on the current situation, you may update the BIOS and the chipset drivers to check the result. You may also analyze them with Debugging Tools by yourself. You can install WinDbg and it’s Symbol Packages from the following link: http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/Devtools/Debugging/default.mspx WinDbg will tell you the possible cause. For more information, please read Microsoft KB Article:How to read the small memory dump files that Windows creates for debugging. If no clue can be found, you may contact Microsoft Customer Service and Support (CSS) via telephone so that a dedicated Support Professional can assist with your request. To troubleshoot this kind of kernel crash issue, we need to debug the crashed system dump. Unfortunately, debugging is beyond what we can do in the forum. Please be advised that contacting phone support will be a charged call. To obtain the phone numbers for specific technology request please take a look at the web site listed below: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;EN-US;OfferProPhone#faq607 Regards, Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.

This is fantastic - did you use debugging tools?

Hello, Do you have SP1 installed if so you may want this USB update: 2529073 Binary files in some USB drivers are not updated after you install Windows 7 SP1 or Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;2529073 Thanks, Darrell Gorter [MSFT] This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
