Hello everyone. I recently did a new build with an FX-8350 and initially started with a GA-970-sd3h, but I was really seeing unsatisfactory performance with the board, so I switched to a Sabertooth 990fx R2.0. I've been a Gigabyte user for many years, but I hear Asus makes a very nice product. So far, everything seems okay. The board has a few more bells and whistles and things to figure out than I am used to, but the problem I am having is a strange one-
I am using a wireless mouse and keyboard, and any time I have the USB dongle for the m+k plugged in to the front USB, if I plug in a USB key to the same set of USB ports (2.0 or 3.0), the m+k simply freeze up. It does this in bios and windows. In fact, if I boot the machine with a USB key inserted to the front panel, the startup takes longer and I can't use the keyboard to get into bios. I checked the USB utility in the bios and they all appear to be active, but I am very new to Asus products (took me a very long time to figure out how to get my RAM to 1866mhz).
The f_panel connector seems hooked up right, and the ports clearly work. I downloaded the driver set from the Asus website, but there was no change. Flashed bios to latest version, still no change in this quirky issue. Absolutely love the performance, but I would really appreciate any insight into this.
