I have ASUS mobo - P5GC-MX/1333. The problem is that my USB root hub (containing front 2 USB ports) is not working, although the hub wire is connected properly to the mobo.
I also receive a warning which says - A USB device has malfunctioned and exceeded the power limits of its hub port. You should disconnect the device.
and the Recommendation which shows up is - To re-enable the port, disconnect the hardware and click reset. If u click close ,the port will no longer function.
Please help me what to do.
HERE IS THE SCREENSHOT :::

hi welcome to ch. What do you have plugged into it that's causing it to draw too much power
-
nothing plugged into it. nd also i inserted my pendrive nd it didn't detect it.
-
something is causing it to do that it could be a short somewhere I would check the wire leading from the mobo to the ports.
-
have you tried clicking the "reset" button?
What happened?
-
I've had ASUS MB's in the past that seemed to have 'weak drive' to the front USB ports. Solution is to use your rear USB ports, or maybe buy a USB expander to plug into a front port - that has worked for me.
-
As i told u earlier that my usb hub doesn't detect my pen drive, so will it detect the USB expander ??
And btw what is USB expander ?
-
have you tried clicking the "reset" button?
What happened?
or try to uninstall the port, and then restart your computer..
-
Which port to uninstall ?
In device manager-->hardware tab, it is showing 5 USB Root Hub ?
Should i install all 5 ? Then how will in again install the USB drivers ?
-
The root hub you're having problems with...
Then restart your computer. Windows will automatically install it.
