Hello guys, i keep getting this error all the time...It gives the same error even when everything is unplugged...

It all started few days ago, first it was giving me errors when connected the mouse and keyboard on all the 5 USB ports on the back of my desktop...Then tried everything and finally after connecting my mouse and keyboard on the 2 USB ports on the front it stopped giving me that error...Today i installed a new OS version and started giving me errors again...Now it doesnt stop althought i tried every solution...

I wonder is my motherboard is done at this point and should replace it??

I have an P8 Z68 VPRO motherboard..

That sounds like what started happening when my old Asrock board started going out. Generally motherboards start displaying weird issues like you are experiencing, instead of just simply dying one day without warning.

Same thing happened to me. The replacement board was out of production, and the remaining used ones were so overpriced, I just sold the CPU and RAM and built a new PC.

Maybe you can find one in a for sale forum like we have here, as many people from that generation are upgrading to new platforms.

You could try disabling all of them, and using an add-in USB card. If the errors go away, cheap fix, if not return the card. Hence, pick the right etailer or retailer when purchasing to avoid restock fees and other nonsense.

Cool, and the add-in card is the cheapest fix if the errors return.
