    Default PIC 18f2550 USB joystick TROUBLE (burnt PIC?)

    hello everyone, i finished my 2 axis and 7 button joystick, plugged it into my PC and checked the device manager and everything was working OK

    then i unplugged the device and went on with my life....


    later, idecided to check my device again and plugged it back into the PC, "unknown Device" showed up on the device manager, i uninstalled the controler for this "unknown Device" and unplugged and plugged back in and i still get unknown device from the device manager.

    i was wondering if there is something that went wrong with my coding or with my circuit (maybe i burnt my PIC for some reason) i will attach my code and my schematic for reference.

    maybe i did something wrong, please advice me. this would be greatly appreciated

    Schemmatic;

    ignore the LEDS on the diagram (i did not place those there) and C3 is 330nf instead of 470nf

    on the outputs you see in the CODE i used an LED connected to a 4kohm resistor an then to GND

    i also connected POTS of 2khoms to AN0 and AN1 (RA0 and RA1)

    I have made several joy stick projects over the years. A couple of observations.

    1. In your ReportDescriptor1, you have only allocated 7 bits (buttons 1 to 7) You either need to change to
    Code:
    retlw	0x01		;	usage minimum  (button 1)
    	retlw	0x29		
    	retlw	0x08		;	usage maximum  (button 8)
    	retlw	0x15		
    	retlw	0x00		;	logical min (0)
    	retlw	0x25		
    	retlw	0x01		;	logical max (1)
    	retlw	0x75
    	retlw	0x01		;	report size (1)
    	retlw	0x95
    	retlw	0x08		; 	report count (8)
    or add a one bit filler.

    I have always used 10K pot for analog inputs.

    Make sure you loop is less than 10ms or USB will time out.

    Hope this helps

    What happens if you reboot and try again?

    DAVE: i will try all of your solutions to my problem, but how do you explain that the device worked before and all of a sudden it doesnt?

    DEMON: i did that and still get "Unknown Device" even o other computers

    i will run to the store and buy a new PIC and see if thats what died on me (and maybe some new CAPS and POTS)

    Thanks for the help so far guys (lets keep it coming XD )

    SOLVED:

    Changed C3 from 330nf (ceramic capacitor) to 470nf (polyester capacitor) and worked like a charm, thanks for the input guys.

    i also changed my pots to 10k as you suggested, but i think ill revert to 2Kohm ones since there is less "noise" (jumping between values)
