Hi
On my 2nd rig there is a short in one USB port. Whatever I plug in there (tried various USB devices) the computer freezes up entirely. Sometimes I get a warning that the USB device is consuming too much power. I therefore assume that there's a short-circuit in that specific USB connector.
All other connectors are fine.
What do you advise? disable that USB hub? Just tape it off?
Should I expect more problems due to this?
This computer is used for my girlfriend's work and I need to know if it's still safe or if the integrity has been damaged due to this issue.
Regards
