Built my computer a little over a year ago with and AMD Athlon 2200+ on an
Asus A7V333-X motherboard.
My case has 2 USB ports in the back and 2 in the front. Ever since I've
built the computer the front ports will work sometimes. I've only used the
front plugs for a digital camera that I purchased (Fuji Finepix 3800). The
problem is when I plug the camera into the front ports (doesn't matter which
one) there is a 50-50 chance it will recognize that there is something
plugged in. When I pull the plug out and try it again it may work it may
not ... I try to plug in the USB cable a couple of times and eventually it
will recognize that something is in there.
The camera always makes beeping sounds saying that it is plugged in (when I
plug in the USB cable, regardless if the computer picks it up or not), and
beeps again when I pull the cable out. I tried reinstalling the drivers for
the camera but same thing. I've tried plugging in an external ZIP drive and
same thing (using two different USB cables). The rear ports work perfectly,
but that defeats the purpose of having two front ports for the use of my ZIP
drive and digital camera (for convenience).
Anyone know what may be wrong .. maybe its the motherboard? I've seen many
front USB ports act up like this, even on computers at stores when I take a
USB key to get it stuff printed.
I've tried getting in touch with Asus but they don't seem to like to respond
and their website mentions nothing.
Thanks in advanced.
