The rear usb ports work now. I didnt hook back up the front ones. my daughter try to plug something into one of them and it is bent down touching the other metal in there i think that is why it doesn't start up while it is connected.

One other thing...my ethernet port does not work. Right now I am connected using my wireless usb adapter. What could that be?

OK you need to load the Motherboard chipset drivers This should take care of the problem. If you go a drivers disk for the motherboard they will be there. If not we will have to find it.

I did that already from the cd. It says it is installed. but it doesn't work.

What is the make and model of oyur system or motherboard? I will see if there is a newer chipset driver available.

Gigabyte EP45-UD3L

Go HERE and get the Chipset driver.
Once downloaded it looks like you just have to click on it to install it. If not your will need to go into Device manager right click on the SM Bus Controller and then click Update Driver

[rshaffer61]

Did the chipset driver work?

[civiccrazy]
