I suggest buying new drive. those DVD burners are very cheap anyway.

PSU is enough but your upgrade plan is waste of money: Eh? Going that route, you pay i3 price + i5 price. Buying right away i5-6500 you pay only i5-6500 price. i5-6500 will not be much cheaper than today on May 2017.

You'll need much better card for 144Hz gaming. And because gaming monitor prices fall quite quickly, I suggest you buy "basic" monitor now and "gaming" monitor when you have better video card.

What GTX 960? You should be able to use Displayport/HDMI also. Unless you want that display for gaming, 144Hz is waste. So you're better off with just "normal" 60/75Hz display. Screen resolution and size is up to you.

Should be OK as max res for 960 you said is for VGA connector and that monitor does not have VGA connector but only digital ones. Still I see no reason to buy 144Hz gaming monitor for GTX 960.

Those parts make no sense at all. For start, 500W PSU is more than enough.

Yes, this is one of problems that go to wtf category.

I'm running out of ideas. Reinstalling Windows is usually good way to solve many problems. If you have second HDD (or partition), you can install Windows there and see if problem is still present.

That sucks then as this problem is very hard to isolate. Problem may be: - USB port settings (like USB port refresh rate or USB port power savings, try those power settings) - BIOS (unlike but possible, try disabling or enabling USB legacy support) - Power supply (very unlike but still...

Try uninstalling those drivers.

OK, any mouse or keyboard software installed?

Try another USB port first. That also may be software problem, some special software installed for your mouse or keyboard?

There are probably many svchost.exe processes. I except reason is Windows update as that's quite common. Try this: Start services.msc, open as admin, select Windows update service and stop it.

Cannot find any other program that should open it. Perhaps that file is corrupted.

Yes.

If you can find motherboard layout on chip level, then you perhaps can do some fix. Without it repairing is quite hopeless.
