My computer keeps doing the usb sound and freezes

Question

My computer keeps doing the usb plug and unplgu sound, and when it does, the computer freezes.  I have tried update all drivers, and run one-key recovery but nothing helps. The system event logs only show one error:
The embedded controller (EC) returned data when none was requested. The BIOS might be trying to access the EC without synchronizing with the operating system. This data will be ignored. No further action is necessary; however, you should check with your computer manufacturer for an upgraded BIOS.
I tried to update BIOS driver and found it was up to date.  Does anyone eles have the same problem? It is very frustrating expecially when you are in the middle of a game.  Please Help!

I understand what you mean about the sound now.  I was thinking of something else.  Sorry for the mis-understanding.
Are these errors showing up in the System Event Log happening repeatedly ?  If there is just one or two of the same error showing up during the session you are on the computer that maybe normal.  As the operating system is working it will occasionally hit a glitch that produces an error in the log, but later in the log you will find where the problem was resolved.  The Event Log is never error free. If an error is repeatedly recorded then it is a problem. 
You can also look at your Reliability History which might indicate a problem.  Go into Control Panel then System Security then Action Center then click on Maintenance and then choose View Relibility History. 
If your remembered when the problem started, did you trying doing a System Restore to a date prior to the problem starting ? 
You mentioned One Key Recovery.  Did the recovery process not correct the problem or did One Key Recovery not work at all ?
Try booting the computer into Safe Mode and see if the problem is happening there. 
Also try logging into the computer using another User account.  If no other accounts are available then create a new User account to try it.  If the other User account is problem free then suspect your original account has corruption. 
On my Windows 7 system the sound event for connecting a device like a USB flash drive and disconnecting the flash drive sounds about the same.  Also the sound event for a device failing to connect will produce the same sound in my present sound scheme.  Try plugging in your keyboard and mouse several times to insure they have a good connection or even try plugging them into another USB port.
Also try another mouse and keyboard if you have them available.  Since you are a gamer chances are the mouse and keyboard are well used and might be failing.
