PC not booting

Hi all

when booting my pc it pauses at the 'Initialising USB Controllers" never done this before.

Then it finds all my SATA drives and says:-

Auto Detecting USB Mass Storage
Device 01

And then it goes nowhere, is it the motherboard that has given up the goat?

Also can't press Delete key to get into bios, or f8 key to go into safe mode.

it is an Asus MSA7-CM

It was only put in last September so it is still under warranty.

What has been happening for a few weeks now, sometimes after booting to the desktop the mouse is frozen, if I pull the mouse from the USB slot and push it back in it will then work, it happens every fortnight or so.

Thanks for any responses.
