Windows alerts with:
"USB device not Recognized. One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it".
The phone detects cable being pluged in and offers if I want mass storage or PC Suite mode, but it doesn't matter which one I choose.
It also stopped charging from PC.
If that doesnt help then i would advise to go windows device manager and from view menu select show hidden devices and delete all other but root hubs, host controllers (Be Advised! this deletes all the usb plugged devices drivers what you have connected to your computer from day 1) also disconnect usbs before that operation and also windows reboot after that is recommended. I do not know if something bad happens from this but it has helped me couple of times with usb devices that do not anymore get reconized by windows.

Try charging using PC while the phone is switched off.

In office I don't have admin rights so can't run device manager.

N900 is worth everything my friend. This is a very common problem when upgrading from the old pc suite to the new ovi one. I've had this problem like a zillion times. I had to remove every bit of PC connectivity suite, Nokia cable driver etc before it started to recognize again. I am not on ubuntu though. Anyways you should know that the new ovi does not support N900 at the moment. Hopefully soon.

so what is the point of launching the mobile into the market without having any good final syncing products. i mean everything is extremely not user friendly. yes i come from an ubuntu backgroud (barely 1 year) and it is hard and complicated just like maemo. but there are no stable applications for this mobile.cant sync. go figure. i thought this would be a rather easy task to do.
I used new micros USB cable bought on Ebay when this problem occurred (I doobt it is a coincidence). Before, with original cable it worked OK, now it's not working at all.
Windows alerts with:
"USB device not Recognized. One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it".
