When I'm playing games my keyboard and mouse will turn off and the only way to turn them back on again is by restarting my pc. I've already tried uninstalling the universal serial bus controllers, updating windows and motherboard. Are there any other solutions like updating BIOS? When I un-plug and plug in my mouse and keyboard, I can hear that my PC has identified that it is plugged in, but they do not respond or work. My motherboard is ms-7b86, amd b450
