Need help troubleshooting board USB port issues

A bunch of ports on my board no longer send or receive data. It's an MSI EDGE board. Fairly recent build, 6 months old. This happened when a device connected to a nearby outlet sparked. Tips and suggestions please?

RMA the board

 

Better safe than sorry.

It's not recommended to fix circuits on the current gen motherboard, since the motherboard nowadays is extremely complex and fully machine production, that damaging the small area/circuit line on the motherboard could be devastating.

My System: Ryzen 7800X3D // Gigabyte B650 AORUS ELITE AX // 32GB 6000MHz DDR5 Silicon Power Zenith CL30 // Sapphire Pulse AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT OC with mod heatsink on the metal plate  // Phanteks P300A  // Gigabyte Aorus GEN4 7300 PCIE 4.0 NVME // Kingston NV2 Gen4 PCIE 4.0 NVME // 

Seasonic Focus GX-850 Fully Modular // Thermalright Frost Spirit 140 Black V3 // Phanteks M25 140mm // Display: Bezel 32MD845 V2 QHD // Keychron K8 Pro (Mod: Gateron black box ink; Tape mode on PCB and Keycaps) // Razer Cobra Wired Mouse // Audio Technica M50X Headphone // Sennheiser HD 650 // Genius SP-HF180 USB Speaker //

No prob, if the board is something designed 20-30 years ago, or some practice brown board for electrical engineering student, then it could be fixed.

 

Good luck on the RMA, hopefully it's better than ASUS RMA process.
