Its been a while,and this isnt urgent.Im just about to transfer some data from my oldest machine turned it on and the message No HID found.Now I think HID is Human Interface Device which I assumue is the USB,but this is where I get a little lost.

As nothing has been touched and the last time this machine was on it was fine,what could have caused it and has anyone any ideas how I can remedy it ?

Remove the USB controllers via the control panel and let Windows reload the drivers, it may sort the issue

What Glenn said, David. Windows describes all sorts of devices as HIDs, when it is hardly an appropriate description.

Plus things like graphics tablets, all of which seem legitimate. OTOH, when I plug my blood pressure monitor in, it regards that as a HID, where I would consider it a mass storage device...

The USB is only used to transfer the data to a program which can graph, chart or export it, In. For the rest, it too uses batteries. :)

Usually with a restore of the OS or a re-installation, unfortunately. If they are USB, it's worth trying other sockets.

It's an Omron, In, which I bought recently to replace a Seinex unit that was struggling to keep up with my low BP. RRP is £100, Amazon did it for £36. The computer interface is handy for printing off charts for Jolly each week (it also detects my irregular pulse and 'flags' that. Whether it will reduce your BP is moot, but it doesn't cause the blue fingers that the Seinex did, it's very fast to detect both systolic and diastolic.

Wouldn't be a bad move, In, I'm running at roughly 100/50 these days, with the beta blockers yet to come. Ironic, really, I've monitored my BP for years, because I figured I was at risk, and it's never gone above 120/70...

Same thing happened to Ray this week, David. Perhaps it's a Microsoft easter egg coming out to play? :(

Perhaps we could interest David in a Windows Home server, its very good at back up and restore. It solved Ray's HID issue without affecting his BP

As you have an 'old' PC already, it would only cost the price of a couple of mid/large HDU's and the OS. You would have to build the replacement PC first :eek4:
