Hi my usb ports are really starting to annoy me. what happens is that only one of them will work at a time meaning if I have a mouse plugged in to any of the usb2 ports it will work fine, but as soon as i also plug in a keyboard my computer flips a bitch and starts using computer profanity by saying I am unplugging and re-plugging in shit, and it goes back in forth in rapid succession between the two until it decides neither of them should work. And also my 3.0 ports will flat out not work. I have tried device manager and deleted all the usb to check if its corrupt, but nothing seems to work. Also this happened about a month ago then stopped and now its happening again and I just want to play batman with the xbox controller(this doesn't happen in game, because I know that the new batman game is extremely buggy). Please Please help me oh mighty technicians.
 
Found a solution to my own answer. Well I guess that's what happens when no one helps you. After a few hours of trying to reset my usb ports I decided to update my driver, but wait theres more. This is because the goddam thing still decided to not work. So while looking up new motherboards that weren't the cheap piece of crap this was I decided to try for a last ditch effort; uninstalling the usb ports and tadaaa. It works so now I can play batman upload photos and videos and all the other crap I should have already been able to do, but I think my genius kicked in by telling me to be a stubborn little shit and refusing to give up on my motherboard, because of the shit ton of work it is to take EVERYTHING apart then put it back together. close call. Anyways thanks alot tom's hardware. Just leaving this up in case anyone else's computer is spouting profanity at them when they attempt to plug more than one thing in
