USB HELP

[182chick]

Hi i wounder if some one can help i bought a 2nd hand laptop and just found out that 1 of the 2 USB ports dont work the middle bit has snapped out of one of them and the 2nd one doesnt work at all, ive been quoted around £100+ but wont pay that cos the laptop only cost me £80. Any suggestions on what i can do ive seen USB 4port cardbus adapter but my only problem is i have a wifi card in my card slot


Please help cos its doin my head in now

Thanks

If you go down the hub route, make sure you get one thats powered ny the mains, else they just hang/timeout/piss you off
