The USB port of the computer is one of the important interfaces for us to connect external devices, but sometimes we encounter the situation that nothing happens after plugging in the USB device. The following tutorial will help you solve the problem that the USB port of your laptop is not responding, so collect it!
1. Check the device and USB cable
First, make sure that the USB device you are connected to is working properly. You can try connecting the device to a different PC to see if it works. Also, check that the USB cable you are using is intact and may be broken or damaged.
2. Check the driver
USB devices require appropriate driver support when connected to a computer. If you don't have the correct drivers installed on your computer, the USB device won't work. Here, I recommend that you can help you check the drivers of your computer through Driver Life, and if there are abnormal drivers, you can also update and fix them in time.
1. Open Driver Life, and check whether your USB driver is updated to the latest version in "Driver Management".
2. If there are other drivers that need to be updated and upgraded, click the "Upgrade Driver" button to help you upgrade.
3. Restart your computer
Sometimes, there may be some temporary errors in the USB port of the computer, which may cause the USB device to be not recognized. At this point, restarting your PC may resolve the issue. Try restarting your computer and connecting the USB device again to see if it returns to normal.
4. Check the BIOS settings
In some cases, your computer's BIOS settings may prevent your USB device from working properly. You can check and change the BIOS settings by following these steps:
1. Press the corresponding button (usually F2, Delete or F10) to enter the BIOS setting interface when the computer is turned on.
2. Look for the option on USB devices and make sure it's enabled. If it's set to Automatic, you can try changing it to Enabled.
5. Update the operating system
Sometimes, there may be some errors or instability issues with the computer's operating system, which causes the USB port to not work properly. Updating the operating system in a timely manner can fix these issues.
1. In the Windows operating system, click the "Start" button and select "Settings".
2. In the Settings window, select Update & Security.
3. In the "Update & Security" window, select "Windows Update" and click the "Check for Updates" button. If an update is available, follow the instructions to complete the update of your operating system.
The above are the 5 troubleshooting steps for the computer USB port to plug in and it does not respond. Hope it helps. If you encounter problems related to the network card, graphics card, Bluetooth, sound card, etc., you can download "Drive Life" for detection and repair, and at the same time, Drive Life supports driver download, driver installation, driver backup, etc., and you can flexibly install drivers.
