What is the usb malfunction I have when I get that message on bottom right corner?


I then heard a sound and got a message on the bottom right corner that a usb drive has malfunctioned? I see that message almost everytime now after I shut it down and start laptop each time? I have laptop charger connected to thunderbolt4 port. I have usb-c to displayport connected to the second thunderbolt 4 port as normal. The usb-c port, I have the Dell 20A 2 in 1 Adapter as I usually do which connects the hdmi to dvi cable for the 24' asus monitor which is having these issues... and the usb port I connect that sabrent 4 port usb hub to it to give me more usb ports. I only have wireless mouse usb and wired keyboard connected to it.

My wireless mouse works and the wired keyboard works as I have those plugged into the sabrent 4 port hub. So it is possible the other 2 usb ports on the port hub is bad or 1 of it is bad which is what this means?
