Latitude E5430 USB 3 ports don't work
Hi Dell Community,
I have a new Latitude E5430 with Win7 Prof 64bit. It has 2 USB 3.0 ports. The USB 2 ports are working well but the USB 3 aren't. If I plug any usb device into USB 3 port (I have USB 2 and 1 devices only: keyboard, USB-Serial converter, Flash Drive, Phone etc...) Windows doesn't detect it and there isn't any power provided to the device. Only the mouse is working well.
I have already installed the latest chipset driver and USB 3 driver, the device manager shows:
Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller (ver 1.0.8.251)
Intel USB 3.0 Root Hub
Please help!

Hi Krisztián,
It seems that this is a hardware issue. the ports are not working and system board might be needed to replace. If the system is covered under warranty, you may provide me the Service Tag and the name as it appears on the account via private message (click my username and then click Start Conversation) so I may access your records and check for further course of action.
If you are residing in US, you may contact Dell Out of Warranty Repairs (OWR) department at 1- 800-288-4410 to check the time and cost involved for repairs. If you are comfortable in replacing the system board on your own, you may contact Dell spares at 1-800-372-3355. For Owner’s Manual, please refer to the link: http://bit.ly/14jE3MP.
Keep me posted with the information. I will be glad to assist you.

update #2:
If I entered into the bios menu the keyboard + mouse doesn't work if they are plugged into the usb 3 port.
If I use an old KVM switch (Aten), the mouse is working but the keyboard isn't in bios menu.

Hi Krisztián,
You may try to uninstall all USB root hubs from ‘Device Manager’. Then restart the system. You may update the system BIOS. Please refer to the link: http://dell.to/19Roh1z.
Note: Before updating BIOS please ensure that:
*Battery is 10%> or >10% charged
*Battery charger should be connected
*No external devices (flash drives, printers, external hard drives) should be connected.
*All other programs should be closed and documents saved
Keep me posted with the results. I will be glad to assist you.

Hi Amogh,
Unfortunately my bios is non-vPro and this is why the update says: "Error: Unsupported System ID Found. Cannot update a Latitude E5430 non-vPro with a BIOS for latitude E5430 vPro"
My BIOS version is A09.
If I filters with my service tag in the download area there is no BIOS update available.
King regards,
Krisztián

Hi Amogh,
sorry for late reply, but I was busy. I updated the BIOS to non-vPRO BIOS A11 and I bought an USB 3 pendrive (Kingston DataTraveler 111). Unfortunately the result is same: the USB 3 ports doesn't work. The BIOS doesn't see the connected device, it is not listed in the legacy boot menu (if I press F12 during boot). If I plug it into USB 2 port I see it on the boot menu. And Windows also doesn't detect the plugged stick if I use USB 3 port.
