Motherboard Problem

I have an ASUS P48X-X Motherboard, its about a year old. Yesterday for some odd reason the USB ports stopped working. The only USB ports which work are the ones on a cheap Ebuyer PCI card.

Does anyone know whats going on?

Have you changed anything in your system in the last couple of days either software or hardware changes, or have you moved the actual PC somewhere as you may have knocked the usb cables going into your mobo header. Or some new software may have messed about with it in windows.

Changes in the past few days have been:

Moved the motherboard to new case
New ATI Radeon 128 MB Graphics cards, and new Drivers
New Rounded IDE Cables

Thats about it. I cant really see whats wrong with it, maybe I could of damaged the mobo when I moved it from my old case, and slightly forced it in.

I dunno what to do now :(

After doing some research, it turns out that my motherboard(ASUS P4S8X-X) Doesnt like any ATI Radeon 9XXX Card, im downloading the latest mobo updates from asus, ill tell you guys the results after i dloaded the files

plz do, cause the card must have cost u a packet, and having to either buy urself a new mobo or card would be a right pain, like the sig (theme wise, ur spec is a crapper jk :P)

:( Looks like I need a new Mobo, no USB ports work, and the slave IDE doesnt work either.

I think I might get the Abit IC-7 mobo

I suffered a similar thing recently. MSI K7N2 board, one USB port, both PS2 ports & Raid controller packed up. Mind you, that full glass of red wine over the keyboard probably didn't help :D

Fortunately for me, I actually bought this thing from PC World, who didn't even question the refund they gave me.

Sometimes ya just get lucky.

memo: don't forcethings.

Good luck with the new build.

if it is an nforce 2 board its been known for usb ports not to work properly check your bios and see if its deavtivated or on a different mode or something

Nah, not an N force 2 board, i removed my 9600XT 128 mb card, and all of a sudden my USB ports and my IDE slot began to work. I guess my mobo just doesnt like my gfx card :(
