    Error Question: *Code 43 - Device Descriptor Request Failed


    hello!

    my Audio-Technica AT2020USB+ microphone stopped being recognized by my computer and I cant figure out how to fix it. yesterday, I was using the microphone with no problem and then today I got an error message in the device manager claiming it is an "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)".

    I have tried everything that I can find on the google to fix this issue but nothing has worked. I know the mic and chord are still good because it works fine in multiple other computers. I have tried to clear my registry of the device, but to no avail.

    Does anyone have any suggestions for me? It is a great mic that has been working fine for a couple months, up until today!



    thanks!

    Maybe it's time to step back from the current efforts, and start over. I suggest you read over this excellent tutorial and try all of its steps: [Solved] Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed) for Windows 10 - Driver Easy. The one that may provide you with some easy relief is the one where you uninstall the device whose descriptor is failing, reboot, and see what happens when device enumeration recurs during boot-up. If you're lucky, it will fix itself.
