It will work fine, then boom.. it will stop.
 
Interesting to note- whenever this happens, I won't be able to shut down the computer. Instead of shutting down- it will just lock instead of turning off the computer.
 
Is this an ACPI problem instead of USB?

You might want to take a look at the KT7 FAQ on www.viahardware.com under the miscellaneous section, if you havent already. There is a bit on there about USB devices not working.

You may also want to try using an external powered USB hub - some USB devices try to draw more power than the mobo can supply, and the mobo usually goes into "shell shock"...
