That error with the USB port is related to the driver for the USB. This driver is part of the chipset drivers of your motherboard. If your USB ports are no longer working and no USB device can be detected, try to uninstall and reinstall the driver. If you’re on Windows 7, click “Start” then right-click “Computer” and select “Manage”.

In “Computer Management” window, select “Device Manager” then on the right expand “Universal Serial Bus controllers”. Under this section, right-click an item then select “Uninstall”. Uninstall all items in this section. When you are finished, close all windows then restart the computer. After booting, download the chipset driver again from the manufacturer’s website. Try downloading from the following if your computer is from these computer manufacturers:

• ASUS Download Center
• AMD Graphics Drivers and Software
• Intel Drivers & Software
• Acer Drivers and Manuals
• Toshiba Support
• Lenovo Technical Support
• Dell Drivers & Downloads
• HP Customer Support – Software and Driver Downloads

If your computer or motherboard is not on the list, check your computer or motherboard’s manual to get the manufacturer’s website. You can also check the URL printed on the motherboard itself for desktop computers. Download and install all applicable drivers and software for your computer to fix the problem.
