Maybe you downloaded the 32bit but you have a 64bit version of windows, make sure you got the right drivers

Try disabling your virus protection while installing the drivers, then re-enable it after the drivers are installed.

Tried it - reinstalled the drivers and still nothing - it says windows recognize the device and under device manager it's listed as unknown device.
tried to go to update the driver manually(pointed it to the usb drivers folder that was created during the installation) and nothing...
Please help
Did you ever solve this issue? I am currently dealing with the same problem on my 64-bit Windows 7 PC.

nope...
I figured I'll format my computer sometime and it will solve the problem.
If you'll find a solution I'll be happy to know

Download Kies Mini from Samsung site. Kies will install the drivers for your phone.
Try This!!!
I still have the same issue, but first try this:
- Download a Live Ubuntu CD and restart with de cd... PLUG THE PHONE.
If recongnaise the phone the problem is windows, you can sleep well.
If not, hardware problem, too bad.
I recently formatted my PC AND WINDOWS WORK PERFECTLY WHEN I PLUG THE PHONE, NON DRIVERS WAS INSTALED. Now i start to install one by one drivers and programs and plug the phone to detect which make the mess.
I hope you understand me, as you see i not an english native person
Hey guys, I'm having an issue here and I'm looking for help. I came from a Vibrant and loved it, have the Charge now and it's a great phone but I need a custom ROM quick. I have a desktop running Vista 32-BIT, and when I open ODIN and put my phone in DOWNLOAD MODE my PC starts searching for a Gadget Serial Driver. It searches and searches to no avail, and then it searches Windows Update. I've downloaded the drivers for the Charge and installed them and I'm still running into this error. If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it.
You could reinstall the drivers; rt click them and run as administrator.
Also try right clicking odin and run as administrator.
Also try different usb ports.

Ok guys so I got it working. When I plugged my phone in to the computer for some reason it wouldn't recognize the drivers from the phone. So I downloaded the drivers from one of the forums and was having issues installing them. Well come to find out in Windows Vista and Windows 7 there is this security feature called Driver Verifying. It's checking the drivers signature to see if it is a security risk or not. Well for some reason Samsung signs their drivers really weird or not at all. So the fix is to reboot your computer and on startup keep hitting the F8 key till some options pop up and select DISABLE DRIVER SIGNATURE VERIFICATION and the drivers should install smooth as butter. This is only a single boot use so if you shut down or restart your computer at anytime you'll have to disable it again on another restart. Hope this info makes it easier for some. Cheers.

Okay I have search XDA and LG AND google search for this problem and have not found any solution to what I'm going through. Here's a little background on my phone
T-Mobile G2x rooted with the ROM HellFire Phoenix V2.1
Before today I was able to mount my SD card to my computer with no problem seeing I've had the phone since it came out. Today my computer showed it was installing the drivers but gave me a message "device drive was not successfully installed...usb composite device failed. Now I have used different usb ports and different usb cables and my computer is STILL giving me the same message!
I have even uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled them and still coming up with the same issue. I even restarted my computer after each and I keep coming to the same issue. Can someone please give me a solution to this frustrating problem? It would be greatly appreciated!
Same exact issue except on 2.2
I think you mean HFP, hfs is only up to 1.7

What about USB debugging is it checked? try the opposite of what it is with a reboot, also link where the drivers are being downloaded from.

Yeah I made sure USB debugging is indeed checked, and when you say try the opposite meaning what? uncheck debugging...reboot then check it again?
The drivers are being downloaded from the LG Mobile Support tool program that downloads and installs the latest drivers. Which can be found here http://www.lg.com/us/support/mobile-devices/phone-support
I even posted on the LG forum as well, got a response from an employee who told me basically what I had been doing, uninstalling , restart the computer, reinstall, restart again and then connect my device and STILL the same message. I have no idea why its doing this, its never done this before unless there was a new Windows update or something but there hasn't been. Oh and my Windows is Vista by the way in case anyone was wondering.
I used B2CAppSetup.exe From LG. I was having the exact same issue, this solved it. I uploaded it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?e2vnaw5a0ljljj4
EDIT: Vista or Seven - make sure you right-click the .exe and Run As Administrator.
I had the same issue with HFS so I just started taking the card out of my phone and putting it directly into the computer.
I had this issue a while back after re-installing the drivers. Plug the phone in and the little systray icon would tell me the usb composite device failed.
What worked was going to the device manager and installing drivers from there, but instead of browsing to the drivers as I tried many times the solution was letting Windows choose. It popped up with two choices the generic usb composite device and the LG phone. Picked the phone and I was good to go.
Hope this helps someone and if it does please hit the thanks button.

Thats the exact program I have been using and I still have the same issue, I'm thinking of just going back to another ROM since it seems to be an issue with HFP then I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one with this issue.
On the stock ROMs you had to set it for USB file sharing only and then actually enable file sharing once it's plugged in. I can't try anything but a stock ROM (running BB 3/2012) at the moment.
Not sure if HF is the same way.....
Antivirus
Once I had driver issues because of an overzealous Antivirus. Try uninstalling the drivers, restart, disable the antivirus, and reinstall.
I have a question for you guys, I tried restoring to a previous Hellfire ROM i backed up thinking that would work and it didn't.
So what happens if I can't get this to work? Without me being able to access my external/internal SD cards I can't load a new ROM or anything even if i wanted to unroot the phone and get another one from T-Mobile I can't or can I?
Is there any other way to restore back to factory settings without connecting to my PC? This is highly frustrating and i have NO idea why my phone and PC aren't working together like they did before in the past.
Did you run as administrator?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Yes i have done everything. Run as administrator, restarting my computer after every uninstall and re-install of the drivers, made sure USB debugging was checked, even restored a previous ROM i saved thru clockwork-mod and when i connect the phone through the USB to my computer i keep getting the USB composite device failed.
Nothing seems to work, so I'm thinking of just accepting that its not going to work and save up and get a new phone eventually which sucks cause since rooting the G2x I love it more than when it was stocked.

Sometimes switching cables help. Once i used a blackberry micro hdmi cable and had problems until i switched to a LG cable. Also running Win 7 in win xp mode helps.

Ok mshoney6, Here is your solution: (you can thank me later)
After much digging and searching, searching, searching I found this driver and I uploaded it for you. Get it HERE: http://www.mediafire.com/?ahc3iklqmoa0gnc
First, go to your control panel > add/remove programs > and uninstall ANYTHING LG! This includes the Mobile Support Tool.
Second, make sure your phone and USB cable are not connected to your pc.
Now, right-click the file you downloaded above and "Run As Administrator".
DONE! Connect your phone to the PC and Viola!
Ok so 3days ago I was flashing a new ROM and something went horribly wrong...lol. I'm NOT blaming the dev or anything like that.. Im in red CWM, I did do an Android back up, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache. The continued to flash the rom, that went good or so I though. Next I went to flash the gapps, so I mounted the system and flashed. I forgot to unmount after i got done and restated the phone. It comes up with SAMSUNG and stays.. I can still get into Recovery, But can't get to download mode the normal way(pull battery, hold vol keys, plug in USB,insert battery) I can however get there through the Advance menu in CWM.
SO HERES WHAT IVE DONE SO FAR WITH NO LUCK......
Tried odin in windows vista but drivers would not work
Fresh install of vista and keies ---NO
so next I partitioned about 25gb of my HDD and loaded Ubuntu 12.04 loaded up JDK,Wine, SDK, and Tried Heimdall one click.
Also have another computer with Fedora and that didnt work. (I'm NOT that good with linux so I may be doing something wrong(I also have team viewer IF someone can help that way)
I know that this can be fixed but I dont know what else to do. Ive searched these fourms and tips and trick and nothing has seemd to work. 6 different machines 4 different OS's and 3 different cables...
Any advice WILL GREATLY BE APPRECIATED Thank You

I did try the one click in vista/xp and was having trouble with the driver part.. windows would say "Unknown Device" but when I tried to load the drivers through the software i'd get failure to install driver. I'm Downloading a new one now just to be on the safe side.
Is there anything while In Ubuntu I can check as far as USB issues???

Oops, I read too fast. You were already saying that it works in Windows. Heimdall works well in Linux too, though, and Odin doesn't.

SO I should keep trying with the same setup but keep changing the cables??
I loaded win7 home premium 64 and that's still a no go...still receive "Unkown Device" error then when I go into device manager and chage the driver manually to Samsung Android Composite Device I get an error 10 can not start device.
Any recommendations on a cable??

When I plug it in, windows comes up and says "Unknown Device" so when I open zadig to install drivers, and click on display all, then check the drop box there is no Samsung Android Composite Device..
I know this may be a stupid question, but is there a zip pkg like the HTC phones have that will re partition and flash the phone.??

Hey everybody...got a lovely rebuilt TF300T. A very nifty machine indeed.
I've been going through all the threads to get it rooted but I've hit a roadblock.
No matter what I do or reboot my WIN 7 machine WILL NOT recognize my tablet nor will it allow me to add all the drivers I've pulled down.
Has anybody experienced this?
Thanks,
JBH
could be your chipset, driver issue, faulty cable, usb3 error...
try running a linux and install adb and fastboot and check if its working or not.
