Unhappy Laptop USB Ports not working



Hi,


Can anyone help me please?

I have a Tiny N18 laptop but the USB ports won't work. When I go into Device Manager and look at the list there there are no USB ports listed!



I don't know if there ever were any (although I guess there must have been) but I recently bought this laptop 2nd hand so I don't know.


Please help! Thank you.

Smile Usb Ports Not Working

Hi,

Sorry I didn't reply earlier but I've not been too well.

No, I didn't get a disc with the laptop and I have no idea how to check the bios.

Thanks.
