Hey i been experiencing an issue for a while now and im not sure if its caused by drivers or faulty USB controllers, it takes bout 2 min or so before im able to even use my keyboard or mouse upon boot up and also some times my devices will just not function and stop running. Prior to this i completely cleaned my machine using the maleware discussion topic so if you want to get catch up on what i was i doing then click on the URL below. I have actually already tried installing a new USB drivers from the manufacturer.  I really do think its hardware issue with a USB controller but im not entirely sure.

I do know i have alot of data on my externals and they have been having issues, when i plug them in or reset my machine, because when i plug them into my laptop they work just fine.

 

I get alot of errors like "you must format your drive" or "this device or driver is not performing correctly" But i kind of ruled out everything, flashed bios, re installed a new chipset and re installed new device drivers for my USB ports. They work fine on my laptop with no issues what so ever, so my conclusion to that is its most likely a hardware issue with the USB controller.

 

How ever just recently after a new reboot of my machine, two of my hard drives did not load correctly and these two seem to be tied together some how, its Drive 6 and Drive 7. When i look at my Device manager currently it shows that two USB controllers have yellow exclamation marks and it says "unknown Device"

 

The mother board i use is an "EVGA P55 SLI E655"

 

Obviously their is still something wrong with this, is their any way you can determine if this is a software related issues or a hardware related issue by running any type of scans or anything like that. I used to PCpit stop before and i think its supposed to detect if your pc has any software, driver or hardware related issues, anyways please let me know as soon as you can, thank you!

Should try resolving the issue with Hitman Pro. It's a good fixing tool for your systems overall performance and really works great enough.

Are you trying to promote Hitman Pro or something?

I seriously doubt it would fix a USB hardware issue.

Are you repairing pc's and charging people or just trying to learn?
