We also check the BIOS to see if the USB ports are enabled.
You supplied the make and model but no OS, no story so we'll start with answers that might fit.

I have a similar problem, my USB ports stopped working. I've run diagnostics, etc. and the hardware seems to be ok. I believe the registry is messed up. Any recommendations on how to check the BIOS to see they are enabled, and secondly is there a utility to run to correct the registry if that is the problem? Any help appreciated.

You didn't tell if the diagnostics passed!

Yes, the diagnostics all passed fine. Thanks for the link, I'll give that a try.
