USB Port Problems
My USB Ports have malfunctioned.
I have a Sony F Series/Model VPCF114FX.
So, whenever I connect a usb device to the usb ports (only 2 available on this notebook) I don't hear a usb device recognition sound. However, the peripheral usb device knows it is connected and gets powered (examples: phone gets charged/notebook fan turns on). Regardless, my laptop doesn't pop up any folders from a flashdrive or the cursor won't respond to my usb mouse, etc.
There are no triangle exclamation marks on any of the USB in Device Manager and all drivers are up to date. I already tried uninstalling them and restarting the computer solution but this did not solve the problem.
Sony's Tech support told me to back up my files and do a system recovery, which I did to a point before the error occurred and this still didn't solve the problem.
Are there any other solutions? I'm not too familiar with computer manipulation, so if you say something like "Check your BIOS", I would probably need a walk through >.<;
Thanks for your help in advance!
