USB Ports no longer work

By Jimmy NY - usenet poster

After loading a map for the game Battlefield 2, my computer crashed and started rebooting... I played the game again and after loading it crashed again, this time comming up with some "AMI" or something, menu. It had a check list saying that everything was "OK" and at the bottom it said hit F1 for Setup or F2 to continue with default settings. I hit F2 and everything was as normal except my USB mouse wasn't working. I plugged in an Ipod to test if it was the mouse and the Ipod did not work through the USB port either. All 4 ports don't work. The mouse worked on another computer.

Does anyone have any idea for what I should do? I already went to device manager and uninstalled all the USB devices and reinstalled them.

Thanks for any help

Hi, and welcome to TSF. In accepting the default settings, you disabled onboard USB support. You will need to enter the Bios again to fix this. At cold boot, press the "delete" key, that should get you the bios pages. Not sure which bios vendor provided your bios software, so I'll be a bit vague here. You are looking for "Onboard USB support" with an enable/disable prompt. You will want to change it to enabled. Select "Save and Exit" and follow the prompts to reboot. If you look while you're in there, there may be an "F" key entry for previous settings. You might try that. Be very careful what settings you change, as you can cause the system to not post, boot, or worse. All bios systems have descriptions of the settings within the page. Those are displayed as each item is selected
