ASUS Z170K Bios and Keyboard Issues (post 3XXX bios)

Hello Folks!

I'm having some issues here.

Since updating to BIOS post 3017 and above. I've had problems where my USB ports intermittently lose connection.
Particularly to my Keyboard Logitech G510s.

I have browsed everywhere and found no real solution on this.
I have reinstalled all drivers, software, reflashing, resetting cms..etc.. and still no go.

Particularly troublesome as the Logitech G510s does not even work inside the bios or to get to the bios (I had to use another keyboard).

All these problems started when installed anything above the 3XXX series bios.
I also heard that ALL the 3XXX series are the problem. Causing Issues with USB ports on a lot of cards.
What can I do to resolve this . I do not want to throw or change this perfectly working keyboard.

Unfortunately, I cannot seem to roll back to the 2XXX series bios or older. As they are no longer supported and gives me a unreadable file error when trying to flash.
