USB ports not working.
« on: January 03, 2010, 08:11:31 PM »
yea so about 2 weeks ago my toshitba laptops usb ports decided to stop working. when i go into hardware management thing it shows a yellow exclamation point next to it. i searched online and people said to uninstall it and restart so it will reinstall it. didnt work. i tried updating drivers. didnt work. tried service pack 2 upgrade (vistgay). didnt work. i even formatted my harddrive and reinstalled this homo as OS and they are still broke. so is my laptops MB shot or something? is there some kind of usb card controlling them thats replaceable?

You could add a pcmcia usb card. It could laso need the MB drivers updated as well. If those don't work..

Give this a shot, right click on my computer, select properties.

go here:



right click, select properties

Go here:



untick all computer to turn off this device to save power.

Do it for all hubs and reboot.

I'm not seeing any motherboard related drivers, meaning it's probably a generic Intel/etc chipset.  Open up the properties for the USB devices that have ! next to them, can you tell us exactly what it says?
