So i've had this problem for about a year and i've owned my computer for a year. I've troubleshooted within windows and turned off any settings that allow windows to shut down my usb devices for power saving but none of that has worked.
Basically, I will be playing a game or even not doing anything intensive on my computer and suddenly, my headphones don't make sound, and my internet doesn't work (I have a USB wifi adapter, the linksys AE2500) and then my keyboard and mouse will stop working within a minute of this happening. I've noticed this happens multiple times within let's say, an hour and i've noticed that it sometimes doesn't happen for a week, but it's happened enough to be an extreme nuisance over the past year.
Another note is that on my case, the USBs on top have never worked, along with my audio and mic port, however my restart button and power button work. The six USBs I have on the back of my case have always worked, but I am led to believe that I can only have 4 things plugged into my USBs on the back but i'm not 100% sure because i don't need more than 4 most of the time. (i have a mouse, keyboard, wifi adapter and a audio/mic to usb adapter plugged in)
specs:
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UP4-TH
Power supply: corsair gs600
case: NZXT Phantom 410
Graphics card: Nvidia GTX 660
ram: I honestly can't remember but I have two 4gb sticks of DDR3
I have a 256gb SSD and a 3TB HDD if these are of importance but i doubt it.
If any other info is needed, I will provide it l, thanks
