Help! My USB ports have pretty much stopped working. The only device they'll recognize is my old Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer.
It start a couple nights ago, when the computer pretty much froze while I was trying to shut it down. I had to shut it down by holding down the power button til it shut off. The next day, none of my USB peripherals were recognized by the computer except my aforementioned mouse. When I plug in either of my hubs or any of the individual devices (such as my card reader or external hard drives) to my laptop's ports, Windows says "USB Device Not Recognized" blah blah. I've tried: - Rebooting - Rebooting with no USB devices attatched - Uninstalling the USB Root Hubs in Device Manager and letting Windows reinstall them - Flashing my system BIOS, in case something happened there Are there basic Windows USB drivers I can try to update or fix somehow? Where do I find them and what can I do? Any help would be fantastic, as I really need to be able to get into my external hard drives and such asap. Thanks!
