Hi Forum,

So I have been rebuilding my PC a few times due to cable management. I got a Z77 MSI MPower motherboard and every day when I turn on my computer the USBs on the mobo won't work, so I can't use my keyboard, but somehow I am (sometimes) able to use my mouse while it's also in one of the rear USB ports. Once I clear the CMOS it all works. I'm sure its not the keyboard itself.

I have just switched to bios B (it has two BIOSs build in) so I will see if it works now.

I believe it started when I updated the BIOS recently, but since a second update changed nothing I'm thinking it has something to do with the OC Genie II.

I know, a very complicated story, but main thing is I can't use my USBs until I clear the CMOS.
