I have checked ports for new drivers, system shows they are there and working but they are not working - any advice?

Need to list your full system specs, brand and model. The processor has nothing to do with the USB ports working or not. The USB ports are usually part of the chipset drivers for the motherboards.

You can try to reset the BIOS, that can at times fix ports. Unplug the PC from the wall power, open the case and take out the BIOS battery for a few seconds. Turn on the PC again and try the ports.
