    i have just built a new computer and the usb sockets wont work UNLESS there is something plugged into them at boot.

    when i go into device manager i see the yellow exclamation sign beside the ports. if i uninstall each port then they will work until next re-boot.

    it is the intel ICH10 USB Universal Host Controller. i have tried to update drivers but it says no updates, currently installed is version 6.1.7100.13 from 21/6/06.

    i am using windows 7 with an MSI P45D3 Platinum mobo. i also have 4 ports on the front of my case that wont work wither so its not just the ones on the mobo.

    any ideas? really annoying this problem...

    cheers

    Have you tried updating the chipset drivers? They are sometimes different from the generic ones,

    i've just been onto the intel site in the downloads section and there doesnt appear to be any chipset updates (tbh, that site is very confusing so i could be wrong though)
