So, are the R/H USB ports now working?

laserbeam Publish time 2-12-2019 03:54:45

The USB port on the R/H will not work whatever I plug into it and the single USB port on the L/H side works for everything apart from the mouse and that mouse works in both USB ports on the R/H side.

I should have said 2 USB ports out of 3 on the R/H side work fine but the third port will not work with anything

I just checked as my wife has two mice that she uses so I tried them both in the L/H USB port and one worked and one did not so I swapped mine which did not work with my wifes which did work.And mine works in either her laptop or small notepad.So have four mice and only one works in the L/H port.Very strange

I would suggest uninstalling all the usb devices......

Control panel/system/device manager.

Unplug everything connected to all USB ports. Then find all usb devices/controllers in device manager and uninstall them.

Shut down the computer, remove all power (disconnect mains and take out battery) and then re-boot after reinstalling battery and power connections. Windows will install the usb controllers again.

Try plugging in your usb devices one at a time again Windows will install the drivers. See how that goes.

Hi John I have just gone into Control Panel but there is nothing for device manager so I entered device manager in the search programs and files and got the following when I clicked on Universal Serial Bus Controllers.What do I need to uninstall.There is nothing plugged into the USB ports.

For future info. it's Control Panel -> System -> Device Manager

Uninstall everything that you can in universal serial bus controllers. Windows should reload everything on reboot and when individual devices are plugged in (assume you are running Win 10)?

If not, you may need driver disks for some USB devices which normally need to be run BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE DEVICE.

When I go into control panel there is no tab for System.My OS is Windows 7 if it helps

Do you have Control Panel set to 'Category' view? If so change it to Small (or large) icon view and you should see the System option
