Warranty Lenovo covers the USB ports?

I'll send my T400 in for maintenance thanks to a messed up motherboard, but before that 2 of the 3 USB ports didn't work for awhile.

Wanted to ask if my 3 year warranty covers the USB ports?

According to me, one of the USB ports is physically broken, with its broken insulation and a folded in sons.

Any chance to the broken USB port is _causing_ the problem of the motherboard?  What are the symptoms?

There is a certain posts here saying that the bent pins in a USB connector shorted something (power 5V, perhaps) and prevented a motherboard of shooting upward.  If you straighten the bent pin the mobo comes to life?

I guess the end of the game is the same in any event.

  • WiFi radio adapter off, the USB ports does not and the Bluetooth adapter is no longer visible... Please help!

    I had my laptop Dell Vostro repaired under insurance in January 2013 after a spill of liquid.  HAAC Ltd. has replaced most of the laptop - but the return, the SD card did not work.  This seems to be due to the engineer he connects not properly and the company recommended it and returned it to me again.  A couple of months, I found my USB was temperamental - so is my built in Bluetooth adapter.   Last month - the wifi does not work for most of the time either so I have to connect to my router by wire.

    This could be a problem in windows 7 - all my problems seem to be related to network adapters.  If it's a hardware problem - does anyone know if it could be another loose connection?  HAAC Ltd. only give a 3 month warranty on parts that seems just a little.  But if this anomaly is due to the production of poor quality - that is not properly connect the laptop then I'll go back their again if they are responsible.

    By the way – there's a switch wifi on the front of the laptop - but is not currently be recognized.

    If anyone has settings that I could check that can help - especially if some inhibit the use of wifi.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    Your wifi switch not recognized is probably a hardware problem. The rest could be a hardware or software problem.

    Method 1:

    Lets start by doing a reset to coercive. Follow these steps:

    1. Unplug the notebook (remove power cord), then remove the battery.
    2. Disconnect all USB devices and the connections between the USB ports.
    3. Let the laptop only for several minutes.
    4. Then plug the power cord without connecting the USB devices. Then replace the battery.
    5. Plug each device in turn, allowing them to load the drivers of devices one at a time (plug in the appliance and wait its loading all its drivers before installing the next USB).

    The computer recognizes the USB ports? All of them or none of them?

    Method 2:

    Open Control Panel, Manager of design. Click the view tab, and then click Show all devices. From there, you can remove all instances of USB devices and restart the computer to see if the problem resolves. Repeat this procedure with the wireless adapter (uninstall and reinstall, ensuring that there is only one instance of the wireless adapter).

    Method 3:

    Create a new user account by following the instructions in this article:   http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/Windows7/Create-a-user-account . Does this solve the problem?  If the problem is resolved in a new user account, this means that the old user profile is damaged. Here is the link to repair a damaged user account: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile.

    Try these methods and post your results here. I'll be here waiting for the results!

  • Computer HP laptop, G7-1365dx has no power on the USB ports

    The laptop has no power over but has sense on the usb ports. If I plug a usb powered auto element into a port, it works very well but is not one unpowered. How can I turn on the power to the usb ports?

    If your laptop is still in warranty contact HP total care. To solve this problem, the system board must be replaced.

    It apears that you have inadvertently pointed the USB ports with something that needed too much current.

  • MP3 player via the USB port (no matter which), it keeps coming back as the "Drive is not accessible. Access is denied. "

    Hello

    So, here are the problems I encounter, and what I did to try to fix myself.
    Whenever I try to connect my MP3 player via the USB port (no matter which), it keeps coming back as the "Drive is not accessible. Access is denied. "  This same thing happens everytime I try to put an SD card in the SD card slot.  However, despite this, I can plug my USB mouse and use it, as well as the keyboard and it records only.  I can also use the HDMI port to use my TV as a second monitor and, also, to record that.
    What I did to solve the problem, it is to restore the system to the previous times before that happened, did not.  I also went into the Device Manager and uninstalled and re installed, USB and SD card drivers.  I also tried something in the sense of taking control of the files via a right click on a folder and go to properties and then security and to the 'advanced settings', the problem with this situation is that I can't in readers at all.
    I am currently running Windows 7 (64 bit) on a laptop Lenovo, the computer itself is actually only a few months.  If someone knows something about this, please let me know.  Thanks in advance.

    Hello

  • iPhone 7 will not play audio via the USB port on the car.

    When I plug my iPhone USB port 7 more in my car (15 Jeep Grand Cherokee), the artist/song/podcast information appears on the screen, but the sound plays through the speakers of the phone.  I have confirmed that my settings are all the same as they were on my 6s, who played without any problems via the USB connection.  Bluetooth streaming works fine - no problems at all.  Any ideas, or is this a problem similar to that people have with CarPlay?

    Welcome to Apple Support communities, kevo.mac!

    Congratulations on your new iPhone 7 more! I see that you connect with your Jeep Grand Cherokee using the USB port. Everything seems to work fine, except that the music plays through the phone instead. I'll be happy to help you to get this working.

  • Satellite Pro M70 freezes everytime when the USB port is used

    Satellite Pro M70 (SPM76) crashes every time when the USB port is used.
    The mouse works, but external HD/Extarnal card sound/Memory stick causing the laptop to freeze. All the drivers are installed right, they are the most recent and have no trouble with other users.

    The devices are all compatible. Service pack 2 is installed, and all the hardware drivers on the toshiba have been updated... again, same problem.
    The toshiba is about 2 months old and have had this problem since I got it. First I thought it was the drvers, but I cleared of all (?) other options but the USB ports.

    Hello

    Believe me, that's not easy to say what the problem may be. It is important to see if the problem occurs because of hardware or software may be. I recommend you to backup all your data and reinstall the unit using rescue media. On this way the unit will be factory settings and will be clean preinstalled. Test your USB devices and see what happens.

    Try to use some standard like USB stick or external HARD disk parts, because in this case, you must not install any drivers please. If you use other devices like USB webcam with own software and drivers, it is possible that something goes wrong, but what. On this path, it is not possible to say.

  • Where are located the USB ports?

    I think to buy the G60-216EM, but I was just wondering where the USB ports are located, because there is no 360 degree view of the laptop.

    Thank you

    There are 2 USB ports on the right side of the laptop and 1 USB port on the left side.

    I hope this helps.

  • Satellite M30X powers off the power when you touch the USB port

    Hello everyone, just registered and it is the first problem:
    As there is no general hardware forum, I post my problem here.

    I got it twice, my laptop
    (Product: Satellite M30X, Version: PSA72E - 008010GR) just went completely off.

    Motherboard:

    NorthBridge: Intel i855GME
    SouthBridge: (ICH4-M) of 82801DBM LPC Interface Bridge
    Motherboard model: Toshiba EAL20

    USB:

    82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) USB 2.0 EHCI controller
    Version: 2.0
    Interface: EHCI

    I have the latest Intel Chipset drivers installed and Windows XP Home SP3 with all updates.

    Once when I hit just the back USB ports with a USB plug, the other time when I unplugged my bluetooth key (climbing din't remove it).
    There was no blue screen or message of any kind, not even in the registry after you start the system again or this fatal system error box when you start after a system error.

    Just a total failure. But it works fine the rest of the time. I also tried to remake the script, but it didn't work.
    I have cleaned with a vacuum cleaner to remove dust and has taken a good look, but saw no difference to the side track.
    Maybe the clamps of the wand to shield a little more out to the contact pins on the rear.

    What bothers me a bit, it's some time ago, I had the laptop one computer my knees and I forgot that a memory stick has been connected to the rear. The stick was pushed up and was slightly damaged.
    Still works well. Now for me, that I broke the USB port Insider somehing.
    I could not determine also the loose parts or unfirm at all.

    Y at - it there, diagnostic software that measures the motto of the port or power problems?
    I have a multimeter, fetch short-circuits with it?

    I saw a package of drivers Intel for USB 2.0 over there, but I can't find it on their page, advice?

    Thank you very much for your help, I just wanted to update my RAM and now I am not so shure if my laptop will last the next week.

    Fabian

    Hello

    I put t know any diagnostic software that could analyze this question, I think that a technician of the ASP may be able to provide exactly this question results

    > What bothers me a little is that some time ago, I had the laptop and my knees and I forgot that a memory stick has been connected to the rear. The stick was pushed up and was slightly damaged.

    I think this might be the reason why the laptop stopped while you touch the USB port eventually ports were damaged by using the memory stick, this could cause the laptop off

    However, what we can do is to provide some suggestions and assumptions
    It you want to know why this is happening exactly, then you need to contact a technician laptop for a control.

  • Portege M500 cannot start when the USB ports are loaded

    We have a M500 that recently seems to be affected by start-up problems when the USB ports are loaded with things like KB and Wireless Mouse USB external adapter.

    When these ports are occupied at the start, all the usual tools seem do not load and the associated icons do not appear in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen. The machine in question XP Professional and has 2 GB of RAM. The machine software is generally updated. Machine seems to start normally when the USB ports are empty.

    Once completed a successful boot USB ports can be occupied and the machine will then seem to operate normally.

    Any thoughts?

    Thank you.

    Hello!

    In your case, I would do a BIOS update and also the chipset driver.

    Have you tested the devices USB on another computer laptop or PC? Maybe the problem is the keyboard and/or the mouse and not the laptop.

  • Satellite A200 - 26 d - error code 19 Device Manager on the USB ports

    I decided to try Windows 7, but the usb ports do not work in Device Manager all the usb root hubs have a yellow triangle and the State of the device says "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) ».

    I tried to uninstall via the Device Manager and restart the computer and download and reinstall the drivers for vista, because I can't seem to find the drivers for Windows 7, but none of this fixed anything. I was wondering if there was something else I could try or if I could get a link for the correct drivers.

    Hey JP317!

    If it didn t work removing the USB ports in Device Manager and restart the laptop, you should try to update the chipset drivers because they are usually a part of it.

    So check the site Web of Intel for an update and you should also find Windows 7 drivers.

    If you have any other questions, please let us know!
