The USB ports on the docking station and devices connected to them should be working once again. If it works, the list of items under “Universal Serial Bus controllers” should refresh, and you should see some additional items in the list.
The workaround that I found that does work (under Windows 7) is as follows:
Removing and re-inserting the keyboard and mouse USB cables into the docking station does not fix the issue. The keyboard’s indicator lights (Num Lock / Caps Lock / Scroll Lock) won’t turn on, and the red laser light on the underside of the mouse doesn’t come on. This most obviously manifests in my USB keyboard and/or mouse plugged into the docking station not working.
Occasionally, when I re-dock the PC, some or all of the USB 2.0 ports in the docking station do not “turn on” and work properly. I’m using it with a Lenovo ThinkPad docking station, the “Thinkpad Mini Dock Plus Series 3 with USB 3.0”. My current work PC is a Lenovo ThinkPad T530 running Windows 7.
