[QUOTE="kay_mac, post: 32824"] Thanks for your further observations. I also feel that specific component damage cannot be ruled out, but the USB ports operate normally once the boot up is fully underway, which suggests to me the problem is more likely to be firmware. I was very interested in what you say about the firewire ports, as I have read that these can sometimes be 'lost' as the result of a firmware upgrade. I tried your idea of booting with the programmer's reset button, but it hasn't made any difference on the USB side. Still it was worth a try. Thanks. kay_mac [/QUOTE]
