    Today for no reason my USB ports stopped working. My mouse will now work so I have to use the pad which I do not like. Any help would be appreciated

    Try performing a system restore back to when the USB ports were still working. If that doesn't help, try reinstalling your operating system. If neither of these doesn't solve the issue, I'd suggest calling Asus and sending it for repairs; at this point it'll most likely be a hardware issue and you'd probably need to replace your system board.
