I've currently been having a couple of problems with my computer.. my CD burner doesn't burn all the songs i put on Nero. Only half of the songs on the cd work. I have around 6 usb ports on my motherboard but only 2 work... can usb ports get fried? or is there a way to make them work again? i think my ipod caused all this... ever since i put my ipod on my usb ports they don't seem to work.. any suggestions?

my computer specs are
pent 4 2.42 ghz
512 ddr ram 2100
msi MS-6728 motherboard

Hi xjrx05,
I've never heard of an ipod burning out a USB port.. but I suppose anythings possible. Try the non-functioning USB ports with another peripheral device (use your mouse if its USB type) to test the USP port. If the USB port tests OK..then.. you know its' the ipods fault..either corrupted music files ,, or something wrong with the ipod hardware.
Hope this helps

Also check the Device Manager: RT click My Computer then click Manage then Device Manager or go to start/run/ devmgmt.msc for any "!"
next to Universal Serial Bus Controllers
& or any listings under: Other Devices.
Also check your DVD/CD drives here for any issues.

hey RGPHNX , i tried doing that the mouse and keyboard work fine.. but they jsut dont work on the usb ports. ;(


hey jephree, hmm everything says it should be working fine but i still tried using the usb ports and my cd rw burner and it still just burns half the songs i put on it.

thanks for your help guys

Do you have the setup CD for this board?

It is no longer listed at the main MSI site ... was looking for USB drivers ...

But also for USB:

Note: For WinXP, please use Microsoft Windows Update to download driver from Microsoft or aquire the latest service pack.
