Backstory below, I don't think it matters.* New mobo, OK for less than an hour & I notice erratic kb and mouse, sometimes no input. I wasn't on the web, no lan. Next day it locks up at log-in, pw request in normal mode. I'm thinking it's about usb &/or the mobo, but it's fine/ok in safe mode. I know it's not hardware by temp use of subst hd (laptop) W7. It's Windows locking up.
Tried lots of diagnosis W7. sys32 file check, start-up list where you disable everything, chkdsk, maybe others. Event view no help because error codes that show are no web connection or blind alleys. Of course no "error" because user never logged in. !
I saw open-source product Hiren boot. Old thread here but no info. I may try it but any advice welcome.
*I went against my own advice & got another Z97 bc price was right. This after 2 Asus Z97 fails. No connection afaics.
MSI Z97 PC Mate
Intel I-7 4790
Crucial 500GB SSD
G-skill Sniper 16MB
No GPU needed.
