Hi all!
Windows regularly tells me my USB controller has run out of resources, so I've been trying to understand if switching ports around would help.
I've installed the USB view tools, and can see 4 root controllers, one of which seems to be my 2070's USB-C one. Two of the other ones are listed as 'standard enhanced pci to usb controller' and as far as I can tell only has USB 2 ports (but I don't think they have physical ports). The one that lists all my devices is a 'USB xHCI compliant host controller' and has USB 3 ports, which all seem to have a companion port listed which are USB 2 ports.
Can it be that all my physical ports are on the same root controller and therefore port switching won't make a difference? Does anyone know of a good resource to understand the USB controller realm better?
Thanks, G
