You can fix the motherboard yourself. There are two options, a no-tools approach to repair a motherboard with bad FSB chip contact, or if you have a good soldering heat gun (or a handy friend with one) then you can ask them to do a simple reflow of the FSB chip.
Just to be on the safe side (not to stress the board with heat), you may want to first try the no-tools approach described in the link above, and only then go for a soldering process. With a simple process there's little that can go wrong, and with a complex process like doing a quality resolder some things can go wrong especially if you (or your friend) have never done such a rework.

If this was helpful and informative please vote with a Thumb Up. Thank you.

Try booting into the BIOS Screen and resetting to factory defaults. If that fails suggest swapping the hard drive out and re-install the Operating System - Save your old data and migrate the data off the old drive. You can buy an external drive adapter to connect the harddrive to a USB port to migrate you data.
Good Luck!

Have you tried all ports? I suggest you to try different port and usb device. Then ask HP for help if the port still does not work. Feel free to visit DigitalSupportTech for getting help.

Presario A900 A976TU USB Port Issues

It may be that you need to update your drivers

Start here

Microsoft's built in drivers may not be making best use of your hardware and causing the problem you describe.

The driver may be for the motherboard and not usb.
Either way it provided you with the opportunity to update other drivers too

Broken USB Port compaq presario v5000

The hardware USB ports are identical for both versions. Only the software and hardware controller are different.
I suggest you use a temperature controlled soldering iron with a fine tip for this job.
You need to dismantle the laptop completelt to remove the motherboard from the plastic case. Take a note of where the screws come from because they may be different lengths. Don't apply excessive pressure on the plastic case else it will break, start from one side and work around each side, the plastic case has catches to hold the halves together.
Start by rmoving the hard drive, CD/DVD drive, battery etc.
