Reinstall the driver using the INF only method, using Device manager to install the basic driver components only.The conflict between the driver's port monitoring application and an add-application which is also probing the USB ports can cause either program to cease working, or the USB ports themselves may intermittently fail to respond or detect devices. The monitoring application monitors all ports on the system including USB 2.0 ports and issues can be seen across all ports in the system. This notifies you, for example, if you plug a USB 3.0 device into a USB 2.0 port. The USB 3.0 Controllers above install their own port monitoring application by default. Problem 1 - Intermittent Device Response with Third Party ApplicationsĪpplications which monitor the USB ports on a system may not work, or USB devices in the system may have intermittent issues Native support for most of these controllers is available from within Windows 8.1 the Windows 8 / Windows 8.1 in-box driver is not affected by the issues discussed in this article.
