USB Problem?

demon8991 · 29 May 2012 at 23:46

Hi Guys,

I have an Asus P8Z77-Pro and last night when I turned my PC on the thing wouldn't detect my keyboard, I have tried it in lots of different USB ports and still no go. When I first turn the system on the lights all turn on on the keyboard but go out when it gets to the windows loading screen.

Any of you know of a way I could fix this?

On a less urgent note I also cannot get the front two USB 3.0 ports on my Shinobi case to work either which is a complete pain, anyone else had this issue?

At risk of stating the obvious here, but have you tried another keyboard?

I havent actually but i have tried my current keyboard in another computer and it works fine so i thought it would be a software problem?

have you tried going into device manager and removing them all then restart and se what happens

By removing you mean uninstalling all of the devices that use USB yeah?

If so then i will do this tonight when i am home from work (Australia Time)

I've had the same keyboard issue with an Asus P8Z68 Pro mobo and the only answer was my old keyboard. It turned out the old one drew more power from the usb ports, 50ma as opposed to the 35ma of the new one. Both were Cherry Black CyMotion Expert (USB/PS2) Keyboards.

Try checking you're BIOS for any USB options legacy etc. They might have for some reason decided to be disabled or something stupid.

Ok done this and it hasnt helped at all.

The funny thing is they were working a few days ago but at USB 2.0 speed but now they arent working at all.

Anyone else had similar issues?

Ok well after installing and uninstalling everything from device manager one by one.

I finally sorted the problem, I just repaired the USB drivers from the CD and everything is now working again! So odd though that they just stopped!

The only problem I am having now is I cannot get the USB 3.0 ports to work at the front of the case, but they have never worked, anyone with the Shinobi Mid ever had these problems?

If they never worked are you sure you wired it up on your motherboard and made sure its a 3.0 header?^^
