USB ports not working in windows
ok, so this is what I have
I have windows 7 and linux mint on my desktop
I built my computer myself, and it works great.
My girlfriend asked me to help her put songs onto her iPhone 3G this weekend so I plugged it into my computer while in windows and a little bubble popped up saying a usb port was using too much power, or something along those lines. I didn't think anything of it because nothing else happened. The iPhone had been acting really strange lately so in the end no music got put onto it. I restarted my computer and none of my USB ports work anymore. My mouse and keyboard are USB and now I can't log onto windows because I can't type in my password.
So then I booted into linux mint and everything works great, no problems at all.
I figured I would try windows again and still no luck.
I tried unplugging everything from the usb ports and booting, the just plugging in the keyboard and still no luck.
Obviously it is a problem with windows..because my mouse and keyboard both work in the bios and linux.
Has anyone else had this kind of problem, or know of a way to fix it?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a bunch
