When I shut my computer down, the USB ports power off. This sucks because I want my wireless headset to continue charging.

I?�ve tried enabling various options in the BIOS and in windows have unchecked the option to allow the system to power off the USB root hubs during sleep. But as soon as i power off the pc, the wireless headset stops charging. The LEDs on the motherboard are still on, however.

Any suggestions?

Maybe you should try/test different USB ports from the rear panel or the onboard USB connectors. See manual.

Bios:
USB Power Delivery in Soft Off State (S5) If this option is enabled, the USB port will provide power to your devices even when the system is in Power State S5.
