The USB composite Device is connected to a hub that does not have enough power available to support it

[Kamal_P]

we are trying to use USB hub to connect few devices (camera, Monitor, Keyboard...) to laptop
but are getting this popup "The USB composite Device is connected to a hub that does not have enough power available to support it"

Same is working with Windows 10 or vanilla win7 image

It's an under powered hub.

Some USB ports can't supply the power to run them.

Is it a passive hub or does it have an AC adapter?

Also, the USB3 connection on a computer can provide more power so if you have a PASSIVE hub you may want to try connecting to USB3 first.

If you need a new USB hub, the above one looks like it might be pretty good. It uses an AC adapter so you don't need to draw power direct from the computer, and one is suitable for high drain charging.

No , the USB ports aren't strong enough to power the hub.

I gave a workaround. Try USB3 if you have that (it will be BLUE).

If you don't then you need a powered device.

*You are connecting the MONITOR to USB? Is that to power the monitor or just for a USB hub inside the monitor?

The other devices shouldn't have any power issues, so your problem looks like it might be trying to power a monitor which through a normal USB2 connection.

Again, not sure if that's what you have... if you do then I'm sure your monitor MANUAL will tell you how you can use it which again comes down to a powered USB2 or USB3 device, or possibly an integrated USB3 connection.
