Well, it is worth a try, Thermaltake are usually good PSUs, but still... > I will try this evening with a old ps2 keyboard. But it would surprise me Please make sure to not hotplug a PS2 device (mice/keyboards), they're cold-plug only. Some motherboards and devices tolerate hotplugging, but it is not safe to do so unless you're explicilty told in documentation of both devices that hotplugging is supported. > if this is the source of the problem because the usb transmitter for the > keyboard / mouse is used in another computer without problems and the > over-current messages are always related to port 7 and 8.
