So I have been using MSI Afterburner for awhile, and back in December I got a pop up asking if i wanted to download MSI Live. I went ahead and downloaded it to see if I had any driver updates I needed. At this point all my USB ports worked, but it said I had a USB driver to download so I went ahead and installed it.
I started having some issues with my xbox controller in one of my front ports, randomly disconnects and reconnects while playing racing games caused mucho rage mode which lead me to try other ports and it kept happening.
Tried my joystick out with Star Citizen and it started having same issues (joystick was plugged in back port). Figured it was the driver that caused it so i uninstalled (still rage induced).
This is where it all went wrong, now out of six front ports, two dont work at all. The remaining four, if I connect the xbox controller, the xbox symbol that lights up does a very low constant... shimmer i would say is the best word to describe it, and the computer wont even recognize its plugged in. If i hit a button it shuts off.
Out of the remaining six ports on back, two wont even turn the controller on, and the remaining four are being used and work fine, but if i disconnect my mouse or keyboard and plug back in, it won't recognize them from anywhere between 10 seconds to 5 minutes.
Device Manager used to have USB Controller with an issue, but now all it says is "Other Devices - Unknown device" with an issue. Not sure if its related but Programmable Root Enumerator (have 2 in device manager) 1 is fine, 1 has an issue.
TL;DR - Drivers downloaded, installed, screwed up ports, uninstalled, broke more, Device manager has 2 issues 🙁
6 Back Usb - 4 USB 3.0, 2 USB 2.0 - 2 USB 3.0 Dead
6 Front USB - 4 USB 2.0, 2 USB 3.0 - All dead
Setup:
P8Z77-V LK
i5-3570k OC 4.4ghz
16gb DDR3 1600
GTX 980sli
--quick edit--
i did install and uninstall all drivers in safe mode, just figured i'd through that out there
