Install, configure, and manage USB
devices.
Universal serial bus is an external bus that
supports Plug and Play installation, and
port is usually located on the back of your
computer near the serial port or parallel
port.
USB ports have a separate entry in Device
Manager. To check the device status, click
Universal Serial Bus controllers,
right-click USB Root Hub, and then click
Properties. If USB is enabled in BIOS but
the USB host controller does not appear in
Device Manager under Universal Serial Bus
controllers, or a yellow warning icon
appears next to the host controller name,
then the version of BIOS may be outdated,
and needs to be updated.
When using USB devices you can:
-
Connect and disconnect devices without
shutting down or restarting your
computer.
-
A single USB port to connect up to 127
peripheral devices, including speakers,
telephones, CD-ROM drives, joysticks,
tape drives, keyboards, scanners, and
cameras.
