I have a new Mini S12 that is finicky about USB 3.x devices.  It works with about half of my USB flash memory sticks and my external HDD will not work with a USB 3.0 cable.  Every single device works on my other two computers.

In device manager I get a "Unknown USB Device (Port Reset Failed)".  The issue is identical for the two ports on the back and on the front.

What I have tried:

- restarting the computer (no change)
- Uninstalling the usb devices in device manager (no change)
- Use of a USB 3.0 hub (the hub works, the same devices that fail also fail when plugged into the hub)

What works:

- Kingston Data Traveler 100 G3 32GB (USB 3.0)
- Emtec 16GB (USB 2.0)
- Orico DC3UP USB Hub (USB 3.0)
- Adata UFD 128GB (USB 3.0)
- Sabrent HB-UMP3 (USB 3.0) (Powered USB Hub)

What Doesn't work:

- SanDisk Ultra 64GB (USB 3.0)
- Kingston Data Traveler G4 16GB (USB 3.0)
- Kingston Data Traveler 100 G3 32GB (USB 3.0) (This is a different one than the one that works)

It's a strange problem.  Would hate to have to send the device back for this.

My device is the S12 Mini Pro with an N100 processor (500GB/16GB).

I have now determined that this is not a Windows problem. I booted up with Ubuntu and the problem persists--the same USB devices that don't work in Windows don't work with Ubuntu either.

I have tried uninstalling the driver. I've also installed the latest chipset drivers from Intel in addition to reinstalling the chipset driver in the Mini S12 package.

I've also tried a powered USB hub with no improvement.

It's a very strange issue--the only hope would be some BIOS settings or a future firmware update.

All that being said, I suspect a hardware fault with my unit.

Bonjour. J'ai le même problème avec l'usb qui n'est pas plus reconnu au bout d'un moment dans le bios donc quand je veux boot sur ma clé usb elle démarre pas. Alors je suis obliger de réinitialiser le bios et là il reconnais mon usb et démarrer comme prévu.
