Hello.
I recently disconnected my memory stick from my main PC, and inserted it into my new PC. However, when I inserted it into my new PC; it stated that the device had malfunctioned and had not been recognized.
I didn't think much of it, seeing I have had the stick a long time, and it was bound to die at some point. So after that, I used my sister's USB drive; but upon plugging it into my new PC, the same error emerged.
Now these devices will not work, and appear the error message on every PC i try.
What has happened here? I fiddled around the new PC's USB wiring, because I think I made a mistake, but I am to afraid to try any of USB device incase the same thing happens.
Any suggestions on what might of happened, and how I can fix this?
