Right guys, fairly switched on, built a few PC's etc. I sold my old one last week on ebay, heres the item number:
110394433955Anyway i sent it last week and the new user said he was having problems, i had never had one problem with it. Basically the first time he started it up the monitor was showing no input, so i got him to read the led read out on the motherboard "50". Downloading the manual fault description said USB init. Anyway he had a fiddle now it has random connection problems with the usb mouse/keyboard and monitor. Heres his email to me:

Hi Jamie

We are still having probs with the USBs.

The mouse, keyboard and also the monitor keep disconnecting and re-connecting by themselves. Any ideas what we need to look at or any wiring we can check?

thanks

Mark Cunningham

Any ideas?

POST stuck on USB init is a sometimes recurring problem with nVidia 7 series motherboards, I assume that's what you've got. Check USB front-panel headers, try back panel inputs. Is the monitor 'disconnecting' with the normal Windows "da-dum" device-disconnection sound, or just turning off/receiving no signal? It's hard to troubleshoot without knowing what motherboard this is.

Yeah ive made him take the graphics card in and out, also check all connections, hes sent me pictures and it all looks good. Motherboard is Foxconn C51XEM2AA

am not sure on this but when u plug a usb keyboard/mouse it will install drivers automatically.. maybe driver conflict with the drivers installed for YOUR keyboard/mouse you was using when you had it maybe?
