Hi, I have 8 usb plugs on my pc, 4 of them don't work, two in the front and two in the back. I don't know how to fix it, I tried uninstalling in the device manager, tried to update drivers.. but still not working. What could be the problem?

There is no 3.0 usb driver for windows 10.. and I tried for 7 and 8, its not competible.. also at the motherboard website didnt find a fit.. so there is no way to install that driver?
 
so did you try, if in Ubuntu the usb 3 is working? If it´s not working there too, you might have a defective USB3.0 chip

if not done yet, clear CMOS

try altering with the USB settings in BIOS
xhci, ehci, legacy,....



Drivers are installed by windows 10 automatically. Have a look at your device manager, is there something like USB eXtensible Host controller Intel 7series...?
