Recently repaired PC. Still having issues (HDD's not being detected & USB controller resources) (lemmy.world)

**EDIT: turns out i had a USB splitter plugged into my power splitter. so no power from PSU. **

I recently repaired my PC. I had to replace:

PSU with new

Motherboard with used

1 RAM stick RMA'd

CPU with new

I'm still having 2 lingering issues. The **USB controller not enough resources **message keeps coming on as well as intermittent operation with my front USB ports. My motherboard ports seem to be working just fine, it's everything on the front and in my expansion docks that are having issues. I also cannot see my HDD's - they're not being detected. I have 3 SDD's all working just fine but my 3 HDD's are not there. I have checked the living hell out of the cables.

I'm considering replacing the used motherboard with my old one and seeing if that fixes these 2 lingering issues.

Any thoughts?

Go into your BIOS and make sure the SATA controller is enabled. Many modern boards have it disabled by default since most machines use M.2 slots for SSDs.
If your on-board USB ports work fine, but your extension ports on the front of machine do not, it's most likely a voltage issue. Double check the USB pinouts on your new board with the extender it's connected to.

I tripled checked my BIOS. Everything is enabled.

I'll open her up and will re-check cables when I have a moment.
