I'm having a serious issue with every single one of my USB ports. About every 5-10 minutes anything plugged in via USB disconnects. Keyboard, mouse, internet adapter. Everything. I have to unplug and plug back in my internet adapter, mouse and keyboard are detected back about 4 seconds after they disconnect. I have no clue whats going on. BIOs is updated, all drivers are up to date, using windows 8. Anyone have any thoughts?

I think the electronic stuff that takes care of giving the usb ports power is dying. What board is it?

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Power the system up into the bios, then leave it for a while, then test the keyboard see if it's still working, if it is then it's likely to be a windows issue, if not, then it's a failing component on the motherboard
