No idea why. None of the USB 3.0 ports on my computer seem to be working...I plug something in, doesn't get recognized. Plug it into 2.0 ports, and it works fine. Are there any BIOS settings I need to be looking at, that might have gotten reset or something?

Thanks.

Turning off my computer and unplugging power cable for a few min. Solved the prob.
