Help mini USB port suddenly stops supplying power

[Alberto]

Hello guys,

After almost half a year of using. The mini USB port has stopped supplying power so i can’t plug anything cause it looks like It doesnt recognice anything.

I plug a usb hub, nothing not even the green light on the hub. I put a little miniusb to usb converter with a normal pendrive, nothing not even the red light on the pendrive.

At the momment the mini USB only works to charge the tablet.

Simeone can help me please? Cause i’m in a big trouble since i can’t plug anything, so i won’t be able to reinstall Windows (I did a Windows clean install the day after i bought it and erased all the recovery partitions so i have to use an usb to install Windows)

Thanks in advance and waiting for your suggestions.

Hello, I had the exact same happening on my x89 and after I opened it I found out that there was a burnt diode on the main board so I removed it and soldered a new one and the problem was solved. This most likely happens due to high current on the diode like if per example you had plugged in too many peripherals. Hope you can sort it out with my hint!
