Ok, so basically for the past couple of months I've been witnessing what looks to me like motherboard related issues. But I need help troubleshooting this. I want to be sure before I go shopping for a new motherboard and CPU.
Basically, if I leave my computer idle for a moment at a time, just to walk away and get a beverage or something, most of the time, my mouse and keyboard will no longer be active. They won't accept any input. It's not that they disconnect or anything. It's just that moving the mouse around won't do anything with the cursor. Clicking does nothing. Hitting any key on the keyboard does nothing.
But sometimes, they'll become responsive again after a moment. This never ever ever happens in the middle of usage.
Unfortunately though, the solution most of the time is to get up, disconnect the devices and plug them back in.
Is this my motherboard? Is this Windows? Help me out. Thanks in advance.
