It depends whether the USB port is physically attached to the motherboard or not. If it is, then you'd have to replace the motherboard. If not, then there will be a cable coming from the USB port to the motherboard, chances are that it's loose not a faulty port. _________________ "Microsoft programs are generally bug-free.

I know not a single less irrelevant reason for an update than bugfixes. The reasons for updates are to present more new features."

Sometimes reinstalling the latest mobo chipset driver and reboot may correct the USB problems.
Hope this helps!
