That makes the USB driver set the Open Host Controller Interface (OHCI) controller to a suspended state. When the OHCI controller is in a suspended state, it cannot always detect when you add a new USB device to your computer.

1 Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
2 Locate and then click the following key in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\USB
3 On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD.
4 Type DisableSelectiveSuspend, and then press ENTER.
5 On the Edit menu, click Modify.
6 Type 1, and then click OK.
7 Restart the computer.

If the value of the DisableSelectiveSuspend registry entry is set to 1, the Selective Suspend feature is disabled.
