I have a PC that has been running fine, except with non-functioning front USB ports. Below images explain why. My question is: Can I continue running the PC like this (provided that it's been running like this for weeks) or is there a reason to change the motherboard immediately? Would prefer to do a proper upgrade at a later stage rather, if possible.
Motherboards are incredibly complex pieces of equipment that can be up to 14 layers thick the complexities of which many users on this site probably don't understand. Others may disagree, but I would ask this on the electronics stack exchange not here. You are far more likely to get a helpful, expert answer from someone familiar with electronics design. – Sam – 2018-10-10T18:32:00.713
