ANSWER is: Simply UNPLUG YOUR COMPUTER FROM THE POWER SUPPLY.Yes that’s it! Note that this does not mean just turning off your computer because modern computers don’t really turn off when you press the power button as the motherboard still gets power.Let me explain how it actually works!As we all know Motherboard is the central path of connectivity of all hardware including USB Plug and play devices.Are you interested in How to remove hidden file virus from Windows.

Sometimes the motherboard needs to be “rebooted” also because something can go wrong, i.e. all your USB ports suddenly stop working. The small microprocessor on the motherboard will must have to reload the drivers and your USB ports in order to make then workable.So first turn off your computer using Shut Down or pressing the power button and then UNPLUG it from the wall outlet.That’s it.now start you computer again and you will see all drivers and devices are working correctly.i hope this one is helpful to you especially for computer master and related persons.you may like to read how to resize partition in windows 7 without formatting.
