chipset problem/Gpu get ur Mb tested.

If u get usb problems its northbridge issue. U will get Hard disk problems next, then suddenly the computer wont start at all.

My 845 chipset died sometime back, does anyone know how to replace it. I like the motherboard its pretty good.

Your computer maybe infected by the boot.com virus or autorun.inf virus. You should run a system scan.

Download Noob Killer and do a 8-X Kill or you can manually find the virus which resides in the drives.
