Apropos of nothing, power stops flowing to my machine's keyboard/mouse. This happens with absolutely no fanfare or warning. I'll be typing/mousing, and suddenly the input devices are dead. Tapping "capslock" does not produce a green light, so I know it is not getting any juice.
This also happens when I am away from the computer and it is asleep. When I return and tap a key or move the mouse, I find the power stopped. The computer itself is still chugging normally. When this happens I have tried unplugging/re-plugging the keyboard power cord, as well as changing the USB port into which it is plugged, both to no avail. After I reboot via the paperclip trick, all is well until the next time. This can happen several times a day. Any ideas about why and how to cure?
