Q6600 & Asus Blitz P35 mobo.
Ok, last night i shutdown my pc as per normal. Tonight came home from work, had dinner, tried to fire up pc. Nothing, black screen, not posting. Stupid thing sticking on DRAM check. It does this when bios resets for whatever reason and forces me to remove one stick of ram to get into bios and change dram voltage back to 2.1v so it can handle all 4 sticks.
So since i've done it a few times before I did just that.
3 sticks in.. posts first time @ stock as suspected, so im sitting tapping del to get into bios...hmmm.. nothing happening.. bios is still telling me it's "initializing USB controlers"
I then notice that they keyboard is totally dark, so no power/signal to keyboard. It appears there's infact no power going to any of the 6 usb ports on the rear.
I've tried unplugging all usb devices, psu 24pin lead, resetting cmos, taking out battery (never had anything plugged into usb headers on motherboard in the first place)
Any idea's? everything else seems to have powered up, i'm sitting looking at the bios screen now still telling me its trying to initialise the USB controllers, and my LCD poster screen is telling me "USBFINAL"
Any help would be appreciated
thanks.
