Can you please pass on your full systems specs inclusive of your OS, PSU and connected peripherals? Have you made sure your BIOS and device drivers are up to date? According to Behringer's support page for the device the maximum OS supported by the drivers are Windows 7 so if you're on Windows 10 then you can try and install your drivers under compatibility mode

Right click installer>Properties>Compatibility Tab>Windows 7

Connecting it to an available USB2.0 port is advised instead of a USB3.0 port. You may also want to look through your room's wiring as you could be experiencing an issue with grounding.
