They're not meant too they're only suppose to work for the cooling pad. But the cord is crap I had to buy a replacement

It could still be your USB port and/or cable, try another cable and/or different port. I've had the same thing happen and it was the cable, but on my other notebook it was the port.

I've had mine for quite a while with various wireless mice and keyboards without a problem. I do not have the USB-dongle for my mouse and keyboard plugged into the USB ports in the monitor, however.

I have the same question - I've tried two different wireless keyboards via USB dongle but both trigger the "USB device not supported" error - tried Logitech & HP.

There are three ports. Mini, small, and full size usb. Will none of them work?

Thank you. My other port is occupied by a wireless mouse receiver but I have figured out a solution. Your post was very helpful.

Try different USB ports - you must use one that is direct to the computer and does not pass through something like a card reader add-on.

It's windows basically reinstalling the usb devices. I don't think there's anyway to fix it

I read the manual and you can't install the printer in the usb port :-( any suggestion?

I assume you mean it's not recognized Try plugging it into the cord first then the cord into your usbI can't give you an explanation but it work for me on previous machines Also take a flash drive to test that port. Occasionally they do fail

It may be that you need to use a powered usb hub, if that doesnt work I would, if you havent already, google the problem and see if other users are experiencing issues or if it is just you

I am sorry, I don't know. I just use to hook my mouse and a small USB thumb drive. It doesn't work when I hook the printer to it.

This is probably 1 of 2 issues, either you arent plugging it in all the way and its losing connection, or your usb port is going bad/isnt up to date/is conflicting.I have win 8 64 bit and only the laser sensei fnatic installed for mice and all system drivers up to date, and it works flawlessly on a usb 3.0 port.

Check for the latest driver or driver conflicts(remove any old drivers). USB cabling is a common issue too. Try checking another port and/or another PC.

I bought a cheap usb hub and have used wired mouse and keyboard. Not sure if wireless works. I do know blue tooth mouse and keyboard work.
