    Hi,
    I bought a M860 a little over 1 1/2 year ago and I am fully satisfied with it.

    But I got my first problem now, in the last few weeks all 4 USB ports have died out, it is seriously weird.

    They behave like this. If I put my USB mouse or keyboard or any USB thing normally in it doesnt work, the device gets no power.
    But if I slowly move it a little bit out, but not completly it will get to a point where the device starts getting power, but it is so far that it doesnt work. The laptop doesnt receice any input/data at all from the device, it doesnt even show up.

    For me it looks like a USB port got damaged maybe but on all 4 at roughly the same time? And I normally use only the once on the back, so the side ones just work but they died not all at once but first a side port, then the ports in the back and finally earlier today, the last side port. Now I can't use any USB devices, thats kinda ***** up.

    Any help / information would be appreciated....
