Hi, My usbs have recently died on my lenovo y460p laptop and i figured I could get some more life out of my comp by isntalling a usb card in the mini pci-e bay on the motherboard. I got this from newgg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815124123 When I put the card in the...

I have a lenovo y460p, and recently I was running a couple midid controllers and an arduino, which I beleive overamped my comp and killed the arduino. But one of the ports is dead now, and I was wondering if there is any way to replace this. Thanks
