OK............. I am not sure if this has happened to anyone else but when I open up something like Skype or join a game of CS:GO everything connected to my motherboard (headset, mouse, keyboard, ethernet cable, etc) reset, almost like someone unplugs it and plugs it back in... This has been happening ever since I opened the side panel of my computer to clean everything inside (it was dusty).

I didn't move anything around while dusting the computer... And i'm not sure if that would have anything to do with it...

I hope someone can help me.. Thanks

Yea dont thnk its bios update but you shouldnt have cleaned with hose something might have come loose. Check all your cables, reseat everything (memory, gpu) the cpu is fine dont reseat that. It is also possible you need to download drivers for USB and LAN but thats after you tried everything else.
You opened the side and cleaned it. how did you clean it? With a vacuum hose? With compressed air? If it started happening after you opened it and cleaned, you can be sure that you messed something up if your PC is reacting that way. Doubt it has anything to do with a BIOS update.
 


Yes with a vacuum hose.... Is that bad, not sure because this is my first computer build...
