we have to connect all the device to the hub so that only one USB port on motherboard is in operation, that way only one port would get power

that wont work. the port is going to be limited to 500mA, shared between all the devices. That will only help if the hub has external power.

get a powered hub, or a PCI USB card. the powered hub will likely be more convenient.

at this stage, its either the USB controllers on your motherboard are crap - or something you've missed telling us.

a bad USB cable that you use and the other systems dont, faulty power in your house that could be messing with the PSU somehow, a broken USB port on the motherboard that might be shorting, etc.

what kind of info could i have missed, can you tell , so that i can provide you that info .

HDD does not boot even with a USB HUB, atleast it was detected with normal port

eidairaman1 · Oct 19, 2012, 09:16 AM

are you using the USB port directly on the motherboard or from a header port such as a PCI mount or a case port? You are having a power issue because it works fine on your friends machine. If you have a Wall wart that came with the drive use it.

i am using direct ports on my motherboards, nothing else came with the drive.

that might help, be cheaper than replacing the drive actually.

yeah, try one of those.

you said you tried with a hub - was it powered or not?

if it wasnt powered, you wasted your time testing it. if it WAS powered, then either the drives faulty, or your mobo has some serious USB issues.

mafia97 · Oct 19, 2012, 02:46 PM

but i dont know where to get one, not availablein my local retail store

yes if there isnt a secondary cable going to that hub, it isnt powered.

normally powered devices have a Wall wart or a secondary USB plug in, like the cable u posted earlier

mafia97 · Oct 20, 2012, 04:01 PM

on monday i will go to main market , to get that cable, hopefully that works

mafia97 · Oct 22, 2012, 01:28 PM

That cable did not work

It is even worse than normal cable

theoretically, that shouldnt be possible. must be a faulty cable.

your only other option is a powered hub, or replacing hardware in the PC (most likely motherboard)

mafia97 · Oct 28, 2012, 03:54 PM

na didnt work with cable,
sorry for such a late reply, i by mistake formatted my internal, was a mess, recovered everything
is there any other solution except buying or replacing
