Re: The USB connection is not working.
Dear Stan,
Thank you for your interest, I have already tried what you wrote before, but I checked it again in order and the result is the same, no new ports (COM & LPT) appear in the "device manager"

Re: The USB connection is not working.
Tayfun,

I have tried the dummy load with no change in symptoms.
