c Turn off the USB device and swap the interface cable with a working
cable. Turn on the device.
If the problem is resolved, replace the interface cable.
d Turn off the USB device, connect it to another USB connector on the
system, and turn on the USB device.
If the USB device functions, the USB connector on the system is likely
defective. Otherwise, the USB device is faulty and needs to be
replaced. See "Getting Help" on page 175.
2 Power down all USB peripheral devices and disconnect all USB devices
from the system except the USB mouse and keyboard.
3 Restart the system and reconnect the USB devices.
If the problem is resolved, the problem was likely caused by an overcurrent
event on one of the USB devices. If the problem persists, attempt to isolate
the faulty device by trying different USB configurations.
If the problem is not resolved, proceed to the next step.
4 Reset the system BIOS to the default settings by setting the NVRAM
_CLR jumper inside your system . Use the following procedure.
