    Try removing your PCI cards one by one and rebooting. This should narrow the issue for you. I've seen it happen on a usb 2.0 card.

    Its to do with Powermanagment. Turn it off in the BIOS mess arond with options. If u get into the computer in safe mode or by booting some way uninstall ACPI in device manager.

    Try messing around with that. Should do the trick.

    try it again, because Cals right, seems to be happening a lot with USB 2.0. Also maybe ur MUP.sys is corrupt so re-install the file
