2 of the 4 SATA ports do not work...
Dell Dimension 531 s, AMD Opteron, 2 GB of RAM.
Aim: I would like to add a 2nd HD
Result: I have two HDs and CD player, so that's a total of 3 SATA devices. Everything I plug SATA0 and SATA1 work very well, but anything connected to SATA2 and SATA3 do not work. They are devices checked (I plug HD SATA0 and it appears in the BIOS very well, but I plug it on SATA2 and it's invisible.)
Question: SATA2 and SATA3 locked up 1.5gbit, or they are disabled in some way? I am at a loss. The BIOS has no parameter like you used to see on ports IDE; I can't turn this is a read only field - if it is detected, it is. What I am doing wrong? If I see 4 ports on the motherboard, why I can't use all four?

HP ENVY Beats all-in-One: usb 3.0 ports do not work
USB 2.0 hubs work but the 3.0 have never worked. Thumb drives and exterrnal readers do not appear in the file manager. No problem, indicated in the Device Manager.
Thank you for your help.
After searching around, I found new info: F2 at startup - BIOS - HP has a tool to check if different parts of the computer are working correctly. (Officially), I learned that the usb ports two 3.0 do not work (despite Device Manager, telling all the devices work properly). I received a "failure code" and a phone number to call. Technical support has confirmed that the failure code indicated the 3.0 ports do not work, and for $215 they can repair (price including shipping Fedex).
I see if someone locally replace ports. Not sure that 3.0 ports are worth anywhere from $215. After all, the computer works just fine as it is. It's just annoying, they have never worked, that it took so long to finally find a solution, and that the warranty has expired.

X 51 - R2. Before USB ports do not work
I just got my new Alienware X 51 R2 recently. I begin to test on my new computer. Then I found at the front, two USB ports do not work! My USB device is functional because it works when I connect it to the rear USB ports. I don't know what problem is it? I tried to update and install the driver too much on Dell.com. It's a new pc and therefore disadvantage if the front USB ports do not work. Help, please
Just for someone else who has this problem. It's actually all because the cable that connects the USB card to the front of the motherbard is connected with a black cable. You will probably find that opening upwards, you will find that the thick black cable is not connected.
Once reconnected, you will have your USB market back again. You will also find that your AlienFX works. I just had this problem and after the challenging my brain trying different drivers, reinstalling the operating system, make drains of power without meaning, try all USB, I, I thought I would check the actual cable and voila. Hope it helps others in the future.

Welcome to the community.
Blue SATA2 port must be compatible to connect to another hard drive. He should not ask any questions however, Studio XPS Installation Guide Page 57 under specifications says he has three bays for hard drives SATA 3.5 inch disk.

break in series on the com port does not work
Hello everyone:
I have the following problem:
I am writing a command via the ' 'entry visa' vi on my pc com port. in some cases the com port do not return anything. This means that my "visa read" vi would timeout. the problem is that, later, I need to send more orders but must break the line in order to be able to do. I inserted the "breach of visa" vi but didn't have the reaction I was expecting. the line does not break. I tried to increase the duration of the break, but that does not work either.
Any ideas?
By using LabVIEW 2013
A break will not break the connection, it will just a 1 to the Tx line for a period longer than 11 baud (?) or specified length.
A hardware check that the breakdown is send: connect a scope or a DMM TX and GND, a 500ms break must be clearly visible even on a "slow" DMM (k resistance 10 and two LED antiparrallel or RS232 minitester practice would do the same job )

NB200-12N - USB port does not work
Hello
I updgrade my OS from windows 7 starter edition to now a windows 7 home basic 32-bit usb port does not work is the (only) in the left near card reader sd and lan.
Can you please hellp me to install it? I have download the drivers from Toshiba for my NB200
But does not work.Thank you
Paulo
If everything is OK and right drivers all USB ports should work. You cannot install the drivers for each port separately and force one of them to work properly. On this machine, all three ports are the same USB2.0 ports.
Try reinstalling the chipset utility.
By the way: two other ports work well, right?

I tried to restore the system, change the USB drivers, perform the maintenance of PC and check the antivirus, but nothing did not work.Laptop computer ads?
Thank´s for more info...
Hello
You can try to refresh the USB ports and the controllers that appear in Device Manager.
Disconnect all USB devices and go to Device Manager.
Here, expand USB area controllers.
Now delete all USB host controllers and hubs root USB in the list.
After this reboot of the laptop.
Finally, the Windows operating system should start and should recognise all USB devices once again. Now connect a USB mouse and check if you can use it. -
Re: USB Ports do not work on my Satellite L830-145
Hello
I have Toshiba Satellite L830-145 with Windows 8 and all USB ports do not work. Have updated the Intel BIOS drivers and uninstalled and so on tried a lot and still no luck
Maybe here someone will have an ideaWhen I start the computer power light before windows starts and goes dead when windows starts loading
On USB3 I can recharge the phone, but it won t recognize anything in windows
Any help much appreciated.According to specification for laptop, your laptop comes with Win8 64bits.
Using the original version of Windows preinstalled?All that you have done is just, but if nothing is done, maybe you should try to reinstall original recovery feature by image and test with the factory settings.

This boot problem after a storm in my area some time ago.Please can someone help.
Thank you
SaniHello
> This problem start after a storm in my area some time ago.
Because other devices don't work properly and because procedure didn t get it back help you solve this problem, I think that the problem is related to the hardware malfunction possibly that the motherboard was hit by lightning, which would explain the problems
I think you should ask the maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country to check the motherboard.
But in my opinion, that the warranty does not cover the issues of environmental impact maybe your household insurance could help you

LeeHello Lee
I just, I can confirm that when you use the Replicator port advanced III with Portege M200 several ports do not work. Problem is that Portege M200 does not support these interfaces.
This is a technical limitation and the port of mouse PS/2 port keyboard PS/2, serial port, I.Link (Firewire) port and DVI port will not be supported when Portege M200 is anchored on the Advanced Port Replicator III. :(
