Moving on.

I now have a USB Port (USB 2.0) that no longer functions, when using anything; mice, USB Drives, External HDDs, micro-USB chargers, electric toothbrush (not that I have one, but it probably wouldn't work all the same ^^). In essence, anything that can be used in a USB port doesn't work. It was just a few days ago thought, and I only noticed it wasn't working 'cause my wireless mouse stopped working. NOT flat batteries, definitely sure of that.
I didn't want to think of it as a hardware problem, ugh, what a headache it would have been, dealing with warranties and what not. :stare:
Decided that it is probably a driver or something, I went into the Device Manager thingy, and found that one of my "Universal Serial Bus controllers" wasn't functioning properly, more specifically:
Intel(R) 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller - 1E2D
Message:
Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems (Code 43)
Looks something like this
5129
Anyways, after a quick thought: "Wow, Code 43 really helps.".
After a quick consultation session with Google Sensei, it seems that it may be down to some sort of Driver problem - sigh of relief - which can easily be fixed.
Anyways, how can I fix this? I have the latest Drivers for the Intel(R) 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller - 1E2D, as I found when attempting to update in the Manager, so I know that's not the problem.
Anything?

Now I pose a new question. How can this happen in the first place?
