More USB ports on a laptop? No.

You could use a USB splitter, turning one port into ~3 or more (some require external power).

No way to replace an HDMI port with USB.

Not really is the answer. What is it you are afraid of by using a USB hub? If its battery power, then it will only really make a big difference when you have larger, power hungry peripheral devices connected. This is really the only way to 'add' more USB connections.

With the HDMI not working, I would have suggested a USB to HDMI adaptor, but these need a USB 3.0 connection, and yours will be USB 2.0 (not a fast enough transfer rate)

Hope this helps!

Regards,
K.
