    Hi, I have problem I have never faced on any computer ever...
    I have done fresh install win 7 (deleted all partitions and formated) from USB...
    All goes OK, but now lefet usb 2.0 not working (and also right 3.0, which I expedted). No lan, no wan, no sd card driver by default, no cd rom- so I am UNABLE to put any data on this laptop.
    What to do- I think it is all normal, except 2,0 usb should work without dedicated usb driver. But it is not wotking???
    thanks I need urgent help

    Where did you get your copy of Windows 7 from? You can try side loading Service Pack 1, but the drivers will probably need to be acquired from Windows Updates, and then from manufacturer/vendor websites or driver download utilities (the former being the best method).

    As for the USB 2.0 ports that are not working, you can try updating the chipset driver. Do the USB ports in question show up in Device Manager at all?
