Onboard USB setting in my BIOS seems to disable itself every few days - Please Help!
Hello All,
I have recently flashed my bios to allow me to install a larger hard drive...
Since i have done this the onboard usb port seems to turn itself off in the bios at random intervals.... i use a usb broadband modem so i do need it enabled.... nothing else in the bios is resetting so i know its not a battery issue.... cant seem to find any references to this problem on the internet.... if anyone has any ideas please respond as i am starting to pull my hair out!!
Thanks much,

Hello all,
Thanks for the advice.... I seem to have resolved the problem by doing the following...
I re-flashed the bios with the release after my initial bios but before the newest one, then flashed with newest after...I also disabled and the re-enabled acpi, afterwhich I installed the via miniport drivers, seems ok now....just hope it stays that way *crosses fingers*..... :]
So if anyone else has similar problems after flashing a Gigabite GA-6VX then this should help.
Bye All,

Sounds like FDISK to me!!!!
Reflashing the BIOS was advised in that commment. Why refund the points?

Sorry I missed that, I'll change my rec to award Fdisk.
