Another workaround here, disconnect all the USB ports keeping only the keyboard and mice receiver/transmitter in there and share the results.Īlternative 2, May be something conductive has crapped up in any of the USB Port, making it Short the circuit. In this case, you should try with the port behind your cabinet, coz these are generally USB 2.0 powered and work well, instead of the front side USB. In your case, may be the keyboard and mice transmitter draws more power. Is there anything else I can do or is the motherboard screwed?Ī USB hub max power is upto 500mA. It's like all the USB ports give power but just won't do anything. I can see that the receiver for that is picking up when I push a button on the remote but it won't do anything. I have XP media centre which came with a remote for the computer. Have tried unplugging everything and waiting hours then turning it back on but no luck. I have tried using another mouse and that powers up but won't work. It's coming up to install the drivers but I can't install them as I can't click or use keyboard.

All of my USB ports are giving power but none are working and because the mouse and keyboard wont work I cannot do anything. When I push the receiver button to try and connect the mouse or keyboard it flashes but doesn't recognize when I hit connect on either the mouse or keyboard. They are both wireless and the receiver light only stays on while the XP loading screen is on but then after windows is loaded it goes off. My mouse and keyboard all of a sudden stopped working. If anyone could help with the below it would be much appreciated.
