Hi Chris______ 😉
Have you tried disconnecting all USB connections to see if there is a cable short.
Also check your IO panel on the rear as you may have a short due to IO retention prongs shorting USB contacts.
Should you still not find the short, you will have to bench-test outside the case.

Describe how you bench tested outside the case. In situations like this and bench testing is required, it is best to have the system in a minimum state.
Just power to the MB, one boot drive with OS installed, 1 DIMM in first slot.
Start the system and follow your Qcodes adding one hardware component at a time, rebooting each time until you find the hardware causing the issue.
Do a CHKDSK on your drives to eliminate the possibility of disk error.
Buying on Ebay from US is a big gamble as you don't know the condition of the item you are getting and also for warranty purposes. (especially so if the unit is second hand)
Good luck and I hope you resolve the problem.
