Mouse and Keyboard randomly stop working for a few seconds

[Zydico]

My mouse and keyboard were doing fine with Windows 7, but after I upgraded to Windows 10, my wired mouse and keyboard have been prone to just randomly stop working for a few seconds before working again. When it happens to my keyboard, what key I had been pressing would be typing over and over again, while my mouse is stuck in place (screen is not frozen, videos keep playing, etc). In addition with the windows 10 upgrade, I also got a new graphics card at the same time, but I don't think a graphics/video card could be responsible for this kind of thing, right?

Hardware Information:

Mouse: Corsair Raptor m40
Keyboard: CM Storm QuickFire Rapid
Graphics Card: Sapphire Dual-X R9 270

I have no viruses/malware, and when I go to the devices manager and try to update the "HID-Compliant Mouse" driver online, it seems like it's the recent driver. Same for the keyboard. Therefore, I'm leaning to the Windows 10 to be the culprit, but I'm not too sure.

Drivers carried over from Windows 7 and 8 to the Windows 10 upgrade are responsible for a lot of compatibility issues. As drivers directly interface with hardware, they can cause the PC to stop responding at times. Try updating your graphics, audio, and network adapter drivers. If this fails, try going back to Windows 7. If so, you may want to either upgrade again, or this time perform a clean installation of Windows 10 without loss of data, complete with brand-new drivers.

Go to Device Manager, right click on all usb hubs, go to power management and un-check where it allows Windows to shut them down to save power. You can also do the same for your Mouse and keyboard in device manager.
