I have a USB dongle which has stopped working, it previously worked fine with no problems at all on win7-64bit. Windows tells me it can't find the path for the device. it does not show in device manager or in disk manager. Any help or advice would be most helpful-The dongle is a E220.

    Have you tried plugging it into another USB socket?

    Windows has a terrible habit of "forgetting" about USB devices and you need to plug it into another USB socket for it to see the device again and reinstall the drivers
