    USB Port Problem with ASUS Motherboard

    hello there

    I use the ASUS-Board P5GD2 Deluxe. This board has in all 8 USB 2.0-ports, 4
    at the real panel direct connected and 4 ports at the front, connected by
    cable to the board.

    I found out, that 2 of the ports at the front are not working properly, if I connect them to my Epson Scanner. I get a failure message, that an
    other scanner is already connected to the computer, which is not true.
    Is there one possibility to test generally an USB-port for its
    functionallity?

    Please help me with this problem

    Poor quality (or incorrect) case wiring to the front USB ports is probably
    the cause, rather than a motherboard fault, as I have seen similar issues
    with
    many different systems.
    Do you have any rear USB ports which plug into a different motherboard
    header? If so, plug these into the suspect header instead of the case front
    ports and try with your scanner. If it now works, you know the problem is
    bad front case USB wiring and not a faulty mobo.

    I had this problem with a jump drive and it ended up being the jump drive itself not the USB ports. Try another USB device and see what happens.

    uninstalled all of the usb drivers again and then shut down the computer and disconnected it from its power supply for three minutes and voila, upon restart everything was working as it should.
