USB powershare port not working XPS 14 Ultrabook
I have an XPS 14 Ultrabook. I did a clean install of Win 7 Pro (from windows 8). The USB port (one with powershare) closest to front of keyboard is not working, the other USB port is working.
Did I miss a driver? If so, which one. Unfortunately, I was working on the driver install at 3am and didnt take as good of notes as would have desired. I dont see any problems when i open device manager????
Thanks

Well, some good news. After a restart or two, the USB port appears to be working fine. I have tested it a few times with restarts and a few different usb drives. Not sure what the problem was.
