Lost All USB
(Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit)
When changing my failing secondary HDD for a new one, I had to unplug all the USB devices.
The new HDD works fine, but there is now no USB (either USB-2 or -3). The devices, on two hubs, have power but there is no sign of them in Windows. A restart did not recover them.
I took particular care to put each device back in exactly the same slot as it came out of, to no avail.
I suspect there's an easy fix for this, but I can't find anything simple online.
For what it matters, I did the drive change soon after a Windows update, but the USB was working after the update and before the drive change.
