USB Over Current Status



Hi!

I have a P7P55D Deluxe that have been running fine since the build. Today midgaming session my mouse suddenly went black and ceased to work, when trying to reboot I got the message that USB Over Current Status had been detected and it shut down on me. Only by dissconnecting the mouse I could get it to boot again.
I tried connecting it to another port (from mobo header) and then it lit up and I could move pointer, although it was very jumpy and buttons didn't work. From backend ports its basically dead.
Now I wonder what might have happened?
What exactly does the over current status mean and is it the USB port or the device at fault? (seems the mouse is the problem). Any suggestions on solution or what to watch for?

Related to this, I'm not sure as I can find no physical signs whatsoever, but I fear my kitten might have bitten the moue cord, could that possible cause the over current condition by some damaged wiring?
.
