Right, so i've been having this issue for some time now and it's bugging the hell out of me. I have a wireless headset, every time i plug it into my PC to charge it, a message pops up ''Power surge on hub port. A USB device has exceeded the power limits of its hub port...'', after which, it ALWAYS turns off my keyboard and nothing else, this even caused my last keyboard to break (Razer Blackwidow) (Getting it replaced). No matter which USB port i plug my keyboard into (USB 2.0/3.0), it's always the one to turn off when the error occurs (It is normally plugged into the back of my PC). Any help appreciated.
Update: There are 4 USB ports on the front of my PC, 2 2.0's and 2 3.0's, i only ever used 3.0's because everything i need is plugged into the back of my PC, as i wrote this thread, I thought i should try to plug in my headset into one of the 2.0's on the front, and i still got the power surge error, however this time, instead of turning off my keyboard, it kinda turned itself off (the headset), so i am starting to wonder, is there some sort of a hardware flaw to do with my headset? Tomorrow, i will try to plug my headset into my dad's PC and see what happens. I will update this when i do it. Thank you.
Update 2: My dad has a wireless headset too, i have just tried to plug his headset into my computer and not power surge or any problem whatsoever occured, i'm starting to believe it's the problem with the circuits in my headset.

now i dont know if it is a faulty battery on the headset or faulty a faulty mobo.. try headset on different PC, it the problem persists, the batteries or circuits inside the headset are faulty and use Phone charger just as a security.
