And a full shut-down/restart doesn't fix it?
alright so i have USB ports on my monitor....working fine, i use those for my ipod
today i tried to use them and they just up and stopped working
not just for my ipod too..my thumb drive too (which i used those for that earlier too)
all my other USB ports work except those
something similar to this happened to me a while back when i first got my ipod
and i fiex it somehow but can't remember
any tips?
And a full shut-down/restart doesn't fix it?
Only thing I can think to do is go into the Device Manager and check for any bad USB ports. If you find a bad one, I think you should be able to right click the propeties for an option to fix it (troubleshooting).

it's not really a ncessity cuz i have like 15 other usb ports on my actual computer
it's just really nice and easy using the ones on the monitor
I know it is a simple things, but have you dislodged the USB cable that connects the computer to the monitor?

i can't believe it...that was it
the easiest freaking thing ever and i never checked it....god it was unplugged
what an idiot i am
heh thanks for the help guys!
sometimes the easiest solution is overlooked - glad that was it, and it was that easy!
i know
in this era it's pretty much always the easiest solution
thanks
True!
Question #1: "Is it plugged in?"
Question #2: "Is it turned on?"
idiot: "help! my computer's not working"
guy: "is it powered on?"
idiot: "no"
guy: "there is your problem"
