USB Ports not functioning properly
Hi there,
I have a Toshiba Laptop 1.86Ghz with Windows 7, 32-bit with 2 GB ram.
I recently had a new CPU installed in my computer. When I got my PC back, my 2 USB ports don’t function properly anymore.
The main problem seems to be with my USB Internet modem. (HUWAEI Mobile Connect)
Firstly I checked that the Modem works fine on other computers. I have all the latest drivers installed on my laptop for this modem.
What happens is the following: I put my modem into USB slot 1, and it works for 5 minutes, then disconnects on its own. Then it would work for 30 minutes, and then disconnect on its own, etc.
Worst happens when I put it in USB slot 2, it only connects for a few seconds, then disconnects.
I also cannot put any other items such as a USB memory stick or USB cable into one USB port while the Modem is in another slot. It simply doesn't function.
IN SHORT, I can only use one USB port at a time if I use my Internet Modem, and then my Internet Modem doesn’t even function properly. I can however, use both USB ports if I use other items such as a memory stick or USB cable for printer, other devices. Then the USB porst work fine.
Any help is appreciated. THank You!
