No USB Devices Working Out of the Blue

**tbird2340** · 10-15-2007, 08:51 PM

I was working on my setup last night.. Had usb wifi, my Lilli touchscreen, and usb thumb drive all working with no problems..

Tonight I go to work on it some more.. No USB devices are working.

My usb wifi card has a red light on it instead of green. My usb thumb drive lights up blue for two seconds and then shuts off. The touchscreen doesn't work.

I have done nothing AFAIK.. Any ideas??

Thanks

How long did it work for before it stopped working?

Could the devices be drawing too much power?

After much troubleshooting I think it *may* have something to do with a setting in the bios.. Last night I enabled "APIC Mode" thinking it was ACPI.. I'm not sure if that did it or not but I read some google results stating if you change that setting after Windows is already installed you may have problems.

I'm reinstalling Windows now..

Well reinstalling Windows didn't work. WTH! I just have a hard time believing that the ports got fried..

Sunday night I had a usb wifi card, usb flash drive, and my lilli touch screen all working with no problems. Last night I plug in only the usb wifi and it didn't work.

I'm out of ideas...
