[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1491133, member: 110816"] If the exposed wires somehow created a short or something and that somehow damaged the protection circuits around the USB port on the logic board that could explain the behavior. But the protection circuits are usually pretty resilient to handle these kinds of issues. Also, the fact that the USB does work, but behaves oddly at times indicates that the protection circuits and the USB system itself is most likely working OK.. Do describe what "oddly" means as far as the devices (which devices specifically?) are concerned? [/QUOTE]
