Hello, I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction without getting too technical, as I am not. Please read very carefully as I describe exactly the unique problems that have happen, as it may be extremely obvious to someone who knows their stuff about computers. I know there are other threads similar to this problem, but I feel as though mine is a little bit different due to some reasons listed below.
HOW IT ALL STARTED:
Before this problem started, I had a few blue screens and restarts that happened (which I ignored due to being an idiot). The problem evolved into being able to start up my computer with no problems, but my keyboard wouldn't work all of the time without a re-boot while still being properly plugged in (it was like 50%-50% it would work).
WHAT IT'S CURRENTLY AT:
Now my computer does not start unless I have reset the CMOS EVERY TIME. When it does start, it goes to the OS and my keyboard and mouse re-install themselves, and keep "plugging and un-plugging" themselves back in and out with the computer noise continuing to sound the noise for a USB being plugged in. During this time, my mouse will stop working, and then work again after it's recognized again. This will happen continuously for 4-10minutes, and then my computer will freeze and have to be forced shutdown (in which the CMOS will have to be re-set to POST).
This feels like a MOBO problem, but I don't want to get too spend happy as college loans are killing me.
SPECS:
MOBO: ASRock 870 EXTREME3 AM3 AMD 870 5 x SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD
CPU: AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition Thuban 6-Core 3.3GHz, 3.7GHz Turbo Socket AM3 125W HDE00ZFBGRBOX
GPU: R9 270x
Thank you for your time, and literally any input towards my cause.
