    Hi
    I have just built a computer and it works fine except none of the usb ports are working. I am using the prq pro motherboard. Any ideas?

    I have managed to boot into windows by attaching the keyboard via the non usb connector. Once I was in windows I attached a hdd via usb and it worked. I then tried the usb keyboard and mouse but it failed. The power was not working either. I then tried a new keyboard but it didn't work either and no power was supplied to it.

    I have this mobo too. Check the usb settings in the bios (on pg 3-29 of the user guide). The first few times I started up my pc (WIN XP) it would take about 5 minutes for the usb devices to work (dont have a clue why). After a few days it was fine. (only happened in the os tho, worked fine for the bios)

    Thanks for the reply. I have fixed the problem. It was caused by a confusing setting in the BIOS.
