Peripherals dont work???

[jrt]

Hi, this morning i tried to use my pc and none of my peripherals would turn on. The pc turned on fine but the peripherals did not. I figured out that is i unplug and plug in my peripherals they connect for a short while and disconnect (they connect for 2-3 seconds). Eg my mouse lights up the turns off after a couple seconds same with keyboard. When monitor is unplugged and plugged in it starts searching for a connection again but doesn't find one. I have tried everything I know and nothing has worked. Please help.

Specs:

Amd r5 5600x

stock cooler

aorus x570 pro wifi

gibabyte geforce rtx 3060

cooler master 650w. 80+ gold

kingston hyperxfury 2x16 ddr4 3600mhz

samsung 970 evo 500gb

So a software thing perhaps rather than a USB chip on the motherboard simply going kablooey.  Might still be that I guess. Maybe make shure your system is working correctly by doing an I think refresh, though something more deep may be needed. I don’t know the various windows reinstall levels, if that doesn’t fix it there’s the possibility that something got flipped in your bios and has turned USB off.   If there’s nothing there it may be time to RMA the motherboard.  Hopefully someone else has something better than this.  It’s kind of a “dam’fino” answer.

Implicitive but not diffinitive.  Sadly LEDs aren’t always 100% accurate.  Or, well they are, but that’s just a statement of what was getting initialized when things failed.  It OFTEN means the problem is with that system but it could still be something else that failed during that initialization.  It’s a probability but not a guarantee. It would be kind of bizarre for a video card to cause a USB problem.  Not impossible though, especially with the advent of USB monitors. The other thing is the video still works.  You’re not getting black screen or anything.  Useful for WHEN problems happened though perhaps.  I’m not familiar with win10 boot order.

My monitor is also not turning on which is why the error led is probably on for vga.

Well if the thing isn’t posting it won’t turn on no matter what.  Could definitely be video card hardware.  The problem there is that video cards are hard to get and I don’t even know if they’re safe to RMA right now. There was a time when attempting to RMA a 3080 was basically saying goodbye to it.  The manufacturer would keep the card and send you back a check for list price, then sell the card for twice that.  It depends a lot on what card it is and what the market is doing where.
