Asus u56e USB problems!! Help please!

[chadjordan93]

Right after i put a fresh install of windows 7 on my laptop, my usb drivers were working.
Than after installing a driver for the chipset from Asus's website, it stopped working. i tried to uninstall that driver and even made sure all the drivers for USB were up to date and made sure all the settings were right in the BIOS.
When i plug up anything it doesnt detect it, but when i plug up my external, the indicator light stays green for 4 seconds or so and then goes blank and nothing happens.
could it be hardware failure, none of the USB ports work (3)

Please help! I need these things to work!

Thanks!

The chipset drivers control the USBs. It's unlikely to be complete USB failure, more likely it's the driver. Check your chipset driver version, and see if Asus provides previous versions.
