MOBO: MSI Z170A Gaming Pro Carbon
RAM: 8GB Ripjaws V DDR4 x2

SSD: Samsung Evo 500GB
OS: Windows 10 regular poorboy edition
I'm trying to fix my friends computer, and here's what I know so far:
- The system was fully functional before the error occurred.
- There is ONE dead USB port in the rear of the case, its the one right next to the "type C" port, it was functional before the error occurred.
- The computer cannot boot, the "Over current detected in your USB device, system shut down..." error appears before even the BIOs
- The system has experienced frequent power surges due to the household power being shut off.
- Disconnecting all case USB ports from the motherboard does NOT solve the problem
- Resetting the CMOS battery does NOT solve the problem.
- After removing and then reinstalling all components of the system, the system successfully boots to desktop and is fully functional, but then displays the "Over current" error as soon as the system is rebooted.
We believe the culprit is the dead USB port in the rear of the case, however there's no visible damage. We're unsure of what we can do next.
