    Sure they can. Call support and get it fixed.

    Do the USB ports appear in Device Manager (should be listed under Universal Serial Bus Controllers, near the bottom)? If not, it's a hardware issue - there's a possibility they could've not been connected.

    the problem had to do with sleep mode disabling the ports!! a bios update fixed it.

    thanks for your help
