USB Issues...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Today, i tried to reinstal my OS in order to get a totaly stable system before overclocking. So long story short, after the installation started, and when the "loading windows files" part ended, my keyboard and mouse lost power, like they where turned off....so i rebooted, and the issues was still there. So after that i entered BIOS, load optimized defaults, and restarted. Then the mouse and keyboard started to work again, but only till i run windows update, (SP1) then after the installation of SP1 was over, i had to restart in order to complete it, and after the first bootup the mouse and keyboard disappeared again, so i couldn't use them, the issues appear again, the lights turn off and thats it. Oh and yes i tried setting USB controller from PCH to NEC no use also...

'Now i cleared cmos, and load optimized defaults, selected Raid mode in sata options (i got 2x F3 in raid0) and i have enableled hot plug on my C300 in BIOS, everything else is stock in BIOS, but when i come to windows and even now my keyobard and mouse work, i wonder why does device manager show ! marks under every usb device, even after windows installed the drivers ?

Here is screenshot,



I must note that 4 days ago, i had anthoer error, Power Surge on USB hub port ,



note that this is not my picture, but you get the idea.

Tried to click on both options reset and close no luck at all the message appears again after 5-10 minutes i really dont know what should i do i am worried about this problem i tried to plug my keyboard and mouse to other usb ports i was still getting this error...clear cmos solved the problem, but now i got the other issues mouse and keyboard turned off 3 times in a row...

So this is clearly an Asus drivers/usb controler isues, and now i want to know is there anyway to sort this or i will have to RMA the board? other then this the mobo is almost perfect, please guys if anyone know how to solve this post back, thanks.

P.S. Im using 1850 BIOS, WIn7 was fresh installed, when my mouse and keyobard turned off, the USB power surge error was on my previous WIn7 installation.

[zsamz_]

u have to install NEC USB driver

Thanks for the replay.

Dude, before i had the NEC usb driver, and the issue appear, now i dont have and i got no problems. expect for 1 time in BIOS the mouse went off, but keyboard stayed on, and after i restart (get back in windows) the mouse started to working fine. Now i wonder is this an driver issue or maybe faulty USB ports/mobo? you guys got any idea how to test my mobo for short? (this was ponited from another user as a possible cause)

did you install the usb3 driver?

the way i see it somethin went wrong during install
i would reinstall o/s

It was clean install of OS, i just installed it and that happend, (mouse and keyobard went off) but before i also had "power surge on usb hub port" error, on my previous OS as well. Thanks for your replay.

Please guys, post back any other ideas/info thanks again.

@psyside
What USB ports are you using? I had problems (stuff disappearing) when I was using USB3 ports 5-6 and 7-8. Then I moved to ports 1-2 and 3-4 (closer to audio out) and never had problems again.

Atm i'm using the ones closest to the audio panel, right above the audio, but i dont think its about ports, its more like controller/driver issue but if it is drivers issue then how the hell the mouse went off in BIOS,? something is terrible wrong on this mobo, tbh i never had my mouse or keyboard disappear, like you...they only lost power, (the lights went off and they where unusable) like they where diconnected.

And no i dont think i can rma it, because after they replug everything the mobo will work fine during their testing, because repluging everything seems like fixing the issues for short periods (few days) so i cant really point or prove my problems in order to get replacement, they will most prooly never experience the issue and will send my mobo back as a fully working one, instead of RMA

[andressergio]

guys i cant make my eSATA ports work, what do i have to enable or install ?

***solved have to enabled JMB on bios

cheers !
