Dell Precision M6600 USB port boom!
« on: July 06, 2022, 06:55:32 pm »
I just purchased this camera from Amazon : https://www.amazon.ca/Camera-Charger-Hidden-Reader-Included/dp/B097P9N5TP/ref=sr_1_10?crid=3VIXK6UKTHICJ&keywords=Spy+Camera+-+Hidden+Camera+-+USB+Charger+-+Hidden+Camera+Charger+-+USB+Charger+Camera+-+Surveillance+Camera+-+Hidden+Spy+Camera+-+Hidden+Nanny+Cam+-+Full+HD&qid=1657133323&refinements=p_85%3A5690392011&rnid=5690384011&rps=1&sprefix=spy+camera+-+hidden+camera+-+usb+charger+-+hidden+camera+charger+-+usb+charger+camera+-+surveillance+camera+-+hidden+spy+camera+-+hidden+nanny+cam+-+full+hd+%2Caps%2C85&sr=8-10

It’s mains powered and I was stupid enough to plug it into my Dell laptop without testing the voltage on the USB connection. The instant  I plugged it in, there was a fairly large arc and the laptop shutdown.

Looks like the USB port I plugged into is part of the motherboard.

I’m not optimistic, anyone know how to troubleshoot this?

There some n-Port USB Hub IC directly connects to the USB jack
check, likely broken some of it
