Hello!

My problem with my PC is that after my latest Win11 reinstall, I started having some issues with my entire USB set, yes it randomly resets. Not cool while playing ETS2

For troubleshooting I went over a few things, I have recently updated my BIOS without problems (as far as I know). I before had problems with my entire system lagging during gaming because of the old L-Connect 2 software, after closing it the lag went away. Back then didn't I have any problems with my USB, and the only hardware addition since then has been an onboard SSD. I also have the latest chipset drivers installed ofc.

I would like to know how to troubleshoot this, to find a solution.

Note: I also tried turning off power saving for my USB ports, at first I thought it worked but it didn't.

which version of win 11?
  1. right click start
  2. choose run...
  3. type winver and press enter
  4. current version is 24H2
USB generally built into windows, have you got all the updates?

there is one USB related issue with 24H2 - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/status-windows-11-24h2#3446msgdesc

Lian li need a controller box that works with all their versions, its silly some people have up to 3 of them in the system.
I assume L Connect 3 doesn't work with your hardware?

It says 23H2, could this be the issue?
I can see that there is an optional 23H2 update for Windows 11.

I can't see a way to get 24H2 through the Windows update feature.

I doubt that the USB port reset thing would be fixed by updating win 11.
24H2 is only fairly new, it will show up in windows update when its ready. Its also got its own issues.

what happens when the USB ports reset?

what are specs of the PC?

Why did you reinstall?

could be a faulty USB device?? could be tripping the connection. Just a thought.
