Hello, i have been using my PC happily until recently. My system is:

ASUS M3A78 Pro AM2+/AM2 AMD 780G HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
AMD Phenom 9600 Agena 2.3GHz Socket AM2+
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST3500418AS 500GB 7200 RPM SATA
Kingston 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2
DVD RW
Wireless Keyboard and Mouse.

I bought a Logitech wireless mouse a few weeks ago. However, it was working fine until a few days ago. Then all of a sudden it started to enter power save mode. So i tried following solutions:

- I disabled power save mode. Didn't help.
- Updated bios to the latest version. Didn't help.
- Removed CPU and RAM. Didn't help.
- Did virus scan.
- Cleaned mobo.
- Finally bought a new VGA, it was working fine for a while. It did not enter power save mode or whatsoever, but soon it started to freeze (i found out it was my mistake, VGA was DDR3 while M3A78 Pro is DDR2). So i removed it. But i returned to the beginning. It keeps entering power save mode.

Any help is appreciated. Is my motherboard dead, or do i have another problem?

Oh, and also it will work after several tries, so Windows screen will come up. But soon it enters power save mode. However, often without even reaching Windows loading screen it will enter power save or it will happen even before BIOS shows up.
