This solved the issue for me. I had to restart first tho, so if you do it and see no effect, don't forget to restart once.

EDIT: And ffs learn to say thank you! Thank you Leo :p

Hm, it seems it was quite an extended problem. Most probably not eradicated for good.

Thanks mate. I really had no idea about capacitors. Which I suppose it's not a shock :P

The same applies here. When I said local I meant nation wide. 386 existed in my highschool time.

Thanks guys. Based on your recommendations I will pick one from a local online shop, for faster delivery, and who knows, maybe the warranty will be needed may God forbid.

Thanks mate. On Monday or Tuesday I will have a new MB, one way or another. Thanks everybody

Thank you. I will replace the motherboard for this PC, since it is pretty good, but won't get a super MB since I cannot upgrade stuff with new tech. I am already on online shops, but it seems I am...

Thanks again. I will have to think about it. Cheers

Hm, so there is no way I can buy a board for the future while keeping the old stuff. I was thinking about upgrading the MB first, then double the RAM, then change the CPU or VC, etc.

But if there...

Howdy folks

I just found out that my motherboard is on the way down, and that it's time for a replacement to be made. I have an ASRock, which I understand it's not quite a good brand. The funny...

Problem solved. I went to a computer service and after tests, the conclusion is that the MB is at fault. So my solution will be replacing it, since it seems that ASRock are crap anyway. Thanks for...

Thanks, but I think it's time for a pro to take control. I might do more damage than good since I am not accustomed to servicing computers. I will stick to adding a new HDD, adding RAM, changing the...

Yes indeed. I think the temporary solution is simple. It's time for this unit to go to a computer service and get cleaned, and after that checked for this issue. Unlike my laptops the desktops rarely...

The problem is how do I isolate the issue. I can change the MB, I can change the PSU, but first I have to know what's wrong. Probably the best step is to go to a computer service. Although in my city...

The bios shows normal voltage, I just checked that. I have an external usb hdd always connected, it works fine. for years. no problems with it. i don't get blue screens, computer does not freeze,...

That's why I asked the tech guys from that shop to do a proper configuration of the system, because I am not a tech guy. I took off the Nvidia videocard, and for now nothing new, the usb is still...

Doing it asap.



I will test that too, somehow I do feel that the psu is not strong enough. I disconnected the dvd rom to try to get a small bonus, if that matters, a long time ago.

If the...

Seasonic G Series 550W [ SASS550RM ]

I already thought about this, I even changed the BIOS battery a couple of days ago.

Legacy mode is enabled: http://prntscr.com/d8zve2

Not sure if I am doing it right, but if I am guessing, the selected 4 ports are the frontal 4 USB slots from which only one, which is USB 3, is working, while the other 3 do not recognize devices.
...

Thanks for the input. I am still doing that, looking for possible solutions, but I suspect something physical is happening.

Now the USB 3 ports have problems too. Like when using the USB mouse...

1. I have an USB mouse, Bloody is the name, and a wireless keyboard ( it has an usb receiver, or whatever the name ), from Microsoft. The keyboard will soon be changed with a cabled one, I had enough...

Thank you. I did that, but it is all Chinese for me. I think it's time for a visit to a repair service. Problem is that the tower is heavy and big. I hate doing that.

What I noticed it that some...

Greetings folks

I have a problem that bugs me for years, I never intentionally solved it, sometimes those errors disappears and all USB ports work fine, sometimes they do not. So anyone can help...
