USB2.0 Port Issue

USB2.0 Port IssueThis is an area I've not had an issue with before. My wife Bonnie always forgets to click before removing an item from the port. Win7/32: Two of her three USB ports no longer function. Is there anything I can do to revive them or are they permanently gone? I've always heard that if you don't click they will go bad. I'm hoping reloading the drivers, or something will correct that. I've even forgotten to to click some, but have never had an issue until one of my granddaughters tried to force a connection in with the plug upside down. Thoughts always appreciated.

Re: USB2.0 Port IssueIf there is no physical damage to the port, you can try disabling the USB controllers in Device Manager and restart the computer. It will reload the default drivers.

Re: USB2.0 Port IssueI hope Peru's suggestion works for Bonnie.
With one USB plug still working you may be able to add a USB hub. There are lots of them available. Keep in mind that some components must be plugged directly into a 'main' hub. http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=usb+hub%27&tag=googhydr-20&index=aps&hvadid=35235753001&hvpos=1t1&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10120815556722681037&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=e&hvdev=c&ref=pd_sl_1ooqejjk3m_e If that doesn't work well for you, it may be possible to add a USB Port card. Here is an example that requires you have an available PCIe slot and a "moled" power connector, whatever that is. http://www.staples.com/VisionTek-4-Port-USB-30-to-PCI-Express-Plug-In-Expansion-Card/product_IM1PP6960?cid=PS:GooglePLAs:IM1PP6960&ci_src=17588969&ci_sku=IM1PP6960&KPID=IM1PP6960 Lenovo W70l; 1.6 GHz, i7 quad core, Win 7, 64 bit, 16 gigs DDR-3 RAM; NVIDIA Quadro FX 2800; Two 1T 7200 internal drives; BluRay burner
Re: USB2.0 Port IssueI have had this happen to me. I just restart the computer and it reloads all the usb drivers. When I restart the computer I wait until everything boots up before I plug in any external USB drives.

Re: USB2.0 Port IssueI did all that and all I get is Unknown Driver. I think it needs a new and I'm not sure where to get. I've disable/enabled and rebooted but it still shows Unknown.

Re: USB2.0 Port Issuesometimes if you plug the USB device into a different USB port that might help.

Re: USB2.0 Port IssueBasically it's a USB mouse, 1 out of 3 USB ports will accept it. She can get along with that, but I'd like to correct the issue with the other two USB ports.

Re: USB2.0 Port IssueI had a problem like this some months ago. At the same time Windows Explorer was playing up. The remedy was a repair install of Windows following which all was well again.
