DELL 7040 USB and Ethernet problem
Hello all,
I've picked up a DELL Optiplex 7040 and am currently having a few problems with USB and network.
The lights on the front and rear I/O device work if I plug in a USB stick / USB WiFi dongle, but the USB stick doesn't display in the File Manager. In the BIOS all USB ports are clicked on, front and back panel.
Again when I plug the Ethernet cable into the network port, the light comes on green but the signal isn't recognised. There are no options for wired internet connection in Windows.
A USB keyboard and mouse works fine: I can type and click stuff.
I've got some drivers on a USB for my WiFi dongle, but the PC can't read them! It can read from the DVD drive fine.
I appreciate I might have missed some info off here. I'm running Windows 7. If anybody is able to help that would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Ben
