Hope someone can help me out here because I am tearing my hair out over this problem I am having. The problem began when I tried to upgrade my graphics card from a Geforce 8800gt to the ati 4870. I booted up my computer after installing this ati card and during the post was greeted by the following message. “Usb over current detected please remove over current usb device”. It then went on to say the computer would shutdown in 15 seconds – which it did.
The following is a list of things I have done to try to fix this problem - but with no success.
1) Geforce card back in computer.
2) Removed all usb devices.
3) Bench tested my motherboard out of the case, with only the graphics card and ram installed, I disconnected hard drives/DVD drives... etc
