Hi all,
This is highly annoying.
So I upgrade to windows 8.1. Upon restart, all USB drives stop working. This means that I can't log in to windows at all.
However, they only stop working once I get to the login screen. So I can get into the bios and mess around, but once I continue the keyboard lights shut down as does the mouse, and I get no response.
I know it isn't frozen because on the login screen, there is a internet connectivity icon in the bottom left. This cycles from not connected to connected.
It is very strange. It's like as soon as windows boots up, it specifically turns off all the ports.
So this of course means I can't login and check device manager or anything. I don't have a Bluetooth keyboard available to see if that works, though I suppose I could check to see if Bluetooth is activated as I have a mouse. I'm not at home right now but can check that tonight.
I've never had any sort of problems before installing the upgrade.
System:
I7-4770
Asus Z87 Deluxe Motherboard
16GB RAM
GeForce GTX780
Samsung 840 Pro SSD Drive
