bowsette Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 I have a Corsair K65 RGB, a Corsair M65 Pro, Corsair Vengeance LED ram if that matters, and recently a new RGB mousepad (MM800) and only when I have iCUE open, it will randomly disconnect all USBs. It isn't a consistent thing, it might happen between 5 minutes or a few hours. Is there any fix for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 There was another user with a similar issue. What helped wound up being rearranging the devices on ports and putting the MM800 on a USB 3 port. My working theory was that the USB hub was drawing too much current. USB 3 provides for more current than USB 2 does - almost double in fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevBiker Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 What do you have on your USB ports? Break it down ... all devices. On what ports. Look at the devices in Device Manager ... by connection. Many folks seem to think that they can plug in USB devices willy-nilly. You can ... kinda. You do have power limitations. And more USB devices are drawing more power than they used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 One more note: many AMD boards rely on 3rd party USB implementations (specifically, ASMedia) and there have been problems with them ... even with other devices. The other person that had your same issue also had an AMD board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
