Help: Computer Issues

LMAO, do you know how many asus pc's there are?

Did we even clarify whether it was a desktop pc or a laptop?

 

OP must not have never had called technical support before. 

Call script time! Woot lol

 

lmao

 

Wouldn't it be funny if by coincidence if he was on a laptop and the battery died right at the same time he plugged it into the USB slot haha. Plug in your power cord OP!

 

No support

 

Possible scenarios:
shorted the battery
Jammed the port receptor into something important
Dead battery

'Tis all I can think of.

 

Sounds like it short circuted. Take it to your local computer tech/repair shop. Don't recommend name brand repair shops they charge way to much.

 

I would love to know how you mistook a rectangular USB port for a 3.5mm audio jack...

 

The true question that needs to be answered.

 

Pretty sure she was trying to plug her headphones in but missed... By a lot.

 

In her defense I've done it plenty of times when I wasn't paying attention, seeing as the insert ports are pretty close to each other.

 

You blew up your PSU. That or fried your mother board. That or just burnt out your I/O ports.

 

Or it was a freak coincidence and you should try taking out the battery and plugging the laptop by itself into a wall charger

 

There are usb headphones... You just don't hear about it because 3.5 is the norm for comps.

 

And that lessens his point how exactly?

 

I'm going to go ahead and assume it's a standard type a regular out universal serial bus that you plugged your 3.5mm headphone jack into. I don't see how it's possible for that to have short circuited your entire computer but let's have a go. If it's a standard a which I assume it is it's a rectangular female out that you plugged the headphone jack into. This to me is a feat in itself as you must have really jammed it in there (the height of the entire housing is 4mm not including pin) regardless you managed anyway. I can only assume the short occurred if one were to plug the jack into the left most side where the ground pin is. This somehow bridged the dc power supply of the USB with your headphones. We're the headphones electronic? (As in have their own power supply)??

As for fixing your problem you likely fried your USB port or destroyed it entirely by shoving a jack into a pin in this case the ground...

Replace the port itself, and then follow the power cable back to its power supply

What needs to be replace from there will require tools like a volt meter.

 

R.I.C.E. Guaranteed to fix it

 

Why would rice solve anything. There is no mention of water involved...

 

RICE. The first aid acronym I'm guessing. If not then it's still an acronym and would not be pertaining to just plain rice.

 

My point still stands even if it's a first aid acronym it's a power supply issue not a soft tissue wound guideline...
