Alienware X51 R3 Front USB Issue

Hi

I bought an X51 a little while ago and the front upper usb port does not work. It always gives me the device not recognized message not matter what I do. I have tried multiple usb devices with no luck. All devices work on the usb port directly below it without issues I have tried updating drivers, uninstalling them, restore points, nothing works. All other usb ports work just fine. The PC is brand new and it's getting a little frustrating. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hello,

The port that you’re having issues with is a 3.0 port. We would recommend reinstalling the Intel Chipset driver, the Intel Management Engine Driver, and the ASMedia USB 3.0 driver.

Finally, you can also update the system BIOS.

In case this does not work, please send me your Service Tag through a personal message.
