Hi everyone,

As the title tries to explain, I have ordered and received a brand new small pc from PCS two months ago.
Yesterday I realised that I had never noticed and tried the two front right USB ports.
And bad news, they do not seem to work...
Has anyone any idea of why they are inactive?

Here are the spec if it can help you.

Hi Jerpers,

A big thank you! the loose cable was the issue indeed, and I finally took time to have a look inside the case to fix it...
I have to admit though, that I've spent more time figuring out how to open the case than finding and fixing the cable ahah!

Thanks again :)

So sorry this happened to you, we do test each usb port while doing final QC check's but they can come loose in transit. I still don't understand why they internal side panel cable's are so long as you have to wrap them round inside the case to try and keep it neat!
