Cannot identify my computer's hardware, do not know how to proceed.

zaborowzki2 · Dec 30, 2017

Hi,

I have tried everything to identify one of my peripherals.

I am running w7 and the problematic HW appears as "LPC11Uxx USB Composit" in my printers/device manager.

In the device managers it appears as "COM/DATA" and the hardware id is: USB\VID_1FC9&PID_100B&REV_0100&MI_01

With all that and google I just cannot figure out what is that hardware and where can I get the drivers.

This is a desktop computer that I built and I have tried to unplug all my peripherals with no luck.

Any idea??

Have you had a single board computer (ARM based) plugged in? The VID points to NXP and the LPC11Uxx is an ARM based microprocessor.

Sounds like a card reader driver to me

Can you tell us what PC we're talking about here?

kanewolf :

Hmmm, yes as a matter of fact I have a single board computer Azulle Access Plus. I don't remember plugging it directly into my desktop but it is a possibility that I have done so.

It isn't currently connected though.

Mark RM :

It is a home built PC,
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980
Motherboard: MSI Z97M

Edit: I put the pc together more than 2years ago, I can't recall when this weird component appeared though.

I don't think it was tha Azulle Plus. The Tom's review shows an Atom Processor. This would be more breadboard / Raspberry PI type than a stick computer like the Azulle. Could even be a cell phone.

Have you unplugged the onboard USB headers? Do you have a card reader or other device plugged into a USB header on the actual motherboard?

zaborowzki2 · Dec 30, 2017

Mark RM :

I haven't unplugged the onboard USB header, however the USB3 header on the mother board has a broken pin V+. So one of the two USB3 of the case isn't powered and does not work.

kanewolf :

Never had any of the type. I do have some experimental cell phones but they are all correctly discovered by the PC and I never had recognition issues with them.

kanewolf · Dec 30, 2017

My guess is cell phone. Especially if they were "experimental". That does not sound like Samsung Galaxy to me

kanewolf :

Hahaha sure wasn't!

But how come I can't uninstall the hardware then?? Every-time I uninstall it the PC detects it again and tries gain to install a driver (and can't).

Registry corruption? Who knows. It sounds like it has had quite a lot of uses over the years. I would recommend backing up your data and a clean install. It will probably help a lot of things. If you aren't already booting from an SSD take this opportunity to get one.

Mark RM · Dec 30, 2017

If you try using the built in Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter it may actually remove the entry from the registry. Otherwise I'd track down that string in the reg and just remove it.

zaborowzki2 · Dec 30, 2017

kanewolf :

Hm..Yes.. Out of laziness I have been keeping away from running this step. But I believe you are right, I should go through a clean install. This might take some time, thanks a lot for the help.

kanewolf · Dec 30, 2017

It is a pain. But nothing like that "new OS smell" ...

zaborowzki2 · Dec 30, 2017

Mark RM :

Yeah I tried it many times, but it never offered the key deletion directly. I would have to do it manually.
I will try Kanewolf recommendation and re install my w7 to see if it helps. Thanks a lot for the help though, it is greatly appreciated.

Out of curiosity, could it be related to the broken USB3 header? When I go into the hardware tab of the property of the device "LPC11Uxx USB Composit" I can see 3 other functions for the peripheral. All of them work properly, only the 4th, labeled COM/DATA, has an issue. One of these functions shares the same location and has almost the same hardware ID: "USB\VID_1FC9&PID_100B&REV_0100&MI_00"

The driver installed on this function is "Peripheral for USB input" (translation fro my OS local language is mine).

Mark RM · Dec 30, 2017

could be that broken pin shorting to ground , I mean I've seen weirder things than that. If I didn't want to fix it I'd probably just unsolder the broken pin.

zaborowzki2 · Dec 30, 2017

Ok, thanks a lot for taking the time to answer my question. I'll run the OS re-install and report back. If it doesn't solve the problem I'll mark the thread as solved with your answer about the mobo header.
