The issue I am having is with the front USB ports. I have 6 ports in the back, 2 of which are USB 3.0 and 4 of which are 2.0 and I have 2 in the front that are 3.0. No issue with the back ones but the front ones are giving me grief. I only use the front ones for my Joystick and for my headphones. When i shut my computer off and later turn it back on again nothing works in the front ports, its like they are shut off. So I unplug everything plugged into them, then restart my computer and plug everything back in and they work fine. Next time I shut down and restart I get the joys of doing it all over again. This never happens with the back ones though. Any idea why this is happening and how I can stop it from occurring? Running windows 8 Edited November 26, 2013 by KingStinger! Awards

I've had Dell PC's that have had similar problems but never got a fix for it. Awards

Have you recently upgraded to Win7 -> Win8? Sometimes when upgrading you need re-install your chip set for your USB 3.0. Seeming you just bought it i would say it came per-loaded with win8. Unless you built your own. Edited November 26, 2013 by Devildog4355 ChknFngr 1 Awards

You should be able to find these drivers on the manufacturers website. Awards

I appreciate the help, things like this are extremely frustrating.. just add another drive with win7 on it so you can boot either 8 or 7 what's the model # for the MSI motherboard ......also install LIVE update to get current drivers for you motherboard from its CDrom Caution: with MB model and its Revision ........need to check MB for its printed on the lower left of MB, so you get correct software for MB , they use same model # as using a Jaguar Car with a chevy or ford engine , you need correct MB Revision other wise you have a useless computer if shove a ford part on a chevy motor Awards

Not 100% sure as of yet though. I have my computer plugged into a surge protector with battery back up so my computer was acting like a laptop running on battery instead of plugged in so when I went into the advanced power options the "suspend USB" was enabled so I disable it so that it wont suspend USB power. I shall see if this was this issue.. Seems to be working fine right now. But I havent shut down and restarted yet to see if power is still there at the USB. Awards
