Introduction |
Use this guide to replace the USB port board in a HP Pavilion 15-cc561st (product number 1KU29UA). | | The USB port board is a PCBA with two USB 3.x SuperSpeed ports, an Audio-out (headphone)/Audio-in (microphone) combo jack, and a memory card reader. | | The USB ports are used for connecting USB devices. The Audio-out/Audio-In combo jack is used for connecting powered stereo speakers, headphones, earbuds, a headset, or a television audio cable. It can also connects a headset microphone, but the jack does ''not'' support standalone microphones. The memory card reader is used to access and manage memory on SD cards. | | Problems related to these ports may be software rather than hardware related, for example, [[HP Pavilion 15-cc561st Troubleshooting#Section_Audio_driver_is_outdated|outdated audio drivers|new_window=true]]. | | Shut down the laptop, disconnect all external devices, and unplug the AC adapter before beginning. Take the [[What to do with a swollen battery|appropriate precautions|new_window=true]] if your battery is swollen. |
