It shows an error code .

It the notebook still in warranty?
That is a hardware failure on the USB ports which are part of the system board.

out of warranty i'm afraid,
would anyone on here know what component on the board to look for as a replacement to make the ports work again, a bit technical i know but..maybe a cap has gone bad.!!
