I have a Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H motherboard and all is running fine after some glitches I ironed out. However, I seem to be having an issue with USB 2.0 ports that I have tried to troubleshoot using prompt here, but getting nowhere.
I have a Fractal Design R3 case, a Gigabyte 2 USB 3.5" bay and also a 5 post USB 2.0 PCI card. The motherboard has 2 x USB2.0 ports and 4 x USB3.0 ports and all are working perfectly. Now for the odd bit.
Fractal Design R3:
The front top has 3 USB ports, two of which are USB2.0 and one is USB3.0. The 3.0 works fine but the 2.0 don't work at all.
Gigabyte 3.5" Bay:
This has 1 x USB3.0 and 1 x USB2.0 port. The USB3.0 works fine but the USB2.0 doesn't.
PCI Card:
None of the read 5 USB2.0 ports work.
The pattern seems to be that any USB2.0 port that is not directly on the motherboard is not working, even if (as the Fractal Design R3 front top hub and Gigabyte 3.5" bay suggests), the ports are shared/fed from the same motherboard header. Therefore, this seems to suggest it's a system-wide issue rather than the individual devices. If it was the devices, then I would assume neither USB3.0 nor USB2.0 would be working from it.
Anybody got any thoughts?
