ASRrock Z68 Extreme 3 Gen 3 - USB Keyvoard (Logitech G110) Causes Continuos Reboot during BIOS Post

[RoddyK]

Hi,

I have just installed an ASRock Z68 Extreme 3 Gen 3 and for some reason it seems to get stuck in a continuos loop within the BIOS. I noticed that when I unplugged all my USB devices (specifically my Logitech G110 keyboard) the problem went away and Windows 7 would boot normally. The problem is frequent and occurs nearly everyime I turn on my PC. When it occurs I need to remove the keyboard otherwise the loop continues.

I've just flashed my BIOS to the latest (v1.30) and clearing the the CMOS / BIOS doesn't fix the issue.

Do I have a faulty board perhaps or is this a known issue?

does it loop with every usb port? make sure your plugged into usb2 and not usb3 as it might affect things

I've tried different USB ports. It's definietly related to the keyboard. If I disable "Legacy USB" support in the BIOS the keyboard doesn't work at all in the BIOS but it doesn't reboot continuosly so I suppose that's a fix of sorts. (i.e. make my changes in the BIOS, then disable Legacy support so my computer will boot without me needing to unplug the keyboard)

Just wondering if anyone else has seen anything similiar or do I have faulty board?
