 Posted: Tue, 24th Jun 2008 04:53 Post subject: Very strange USB channel behaviour, replace motheboard? |
|
 |
I have a laptop, an HP Pavilion dv5030us (dv5000 series). The left-side USB channel, which has two ports, seems to be entirely dead, except if I plug in a powered USB hub. If I plug in a powered USB hub into either of the ports, then the other port becomes alive as well. On the right side there is only one port where I normally plug in my hub, so I am not surprised it is working (for a long time it has been not providing its own power to devices, thought it was just normal for that port). Now this problem has extended to the left side ports, and I am not sure if my only option (if I want this truly fixed) is to replace the entire motherboard. If not, I'm wondering if there is any soldering work I can get done that would fix the problem.
Thanks in advance
