Windows 10: Intel USB 3.0 Controller intermittent slow initialization issues at startup

Occasionally I have noticed that the mouse (and now keyboard) sometimes take longer to initialize whenever the login screen appears after a system power up. This is usually accompanied by the device connect sound. Occasionally, sometimes when this happens the mouse does not respond at all and is frozen, requiring a system reboot. I have reinstalled Windows from scratch and this still occurs. Updating the USB 3.0 driver didn't fix the issue either.


The issue appears to be isolated to the USB 3.0 controller that is built-in into the motherboard's chipset. My motherboard also has an ASmedia 3.1 controller onboard, and I haven't been able to reproduce the issue on those ports.


The question I am putting forward is anybody else experiencing a similar issue?

Windows 10 USB 3 issues

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

As per the issue description flash drive (USB 3 device) is not working on your computer after upgrading to Windows 10.

I understand that the USB device is not getting detected by your computer. The issue may arise if the currently loaded USB driver has become unstable or corrupt or if your PC requires an update for issues that may conflict
with a USB device and Windows. This may also occur if your USB controllers may have become unstable or corrupt. So, I would suggest you to try the following steps and check if the issue persists.

Method 1:

Remove and reinstall all USB controllers.

• Open Device Manager by pressing Windows key + X and select
  device manager from the list. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
• In the list of hardware categories, find and expand Universal Serial Bus controllers.
• Right-click every device under the Universal Serial Bus controllers node, and then click
  Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
• Restart the computer, and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.
• Plug in the removable USB device, and then test to make sure that the issue is resolved.

Method 2

The issue could be if the drivers are not updated or get corrupted. So, try to install all of the Windows updates available and if issue persists, try to update the Display drivers by following the steps provided in the article mentioned below.

Does anybody know why I am having really slow system startups? I don't have extra startup programs than I use to have. The only thing that I think it could be is my antivirus program. I use AVG now since I reformated 2 days ago..and every since then, I have a really slow startup..I don't know if that is the reason..Does anybody have any suggestions, on how to speed my startup? I use to be able to be on my desktop screen in like 35-40 seconds at most. And now it is way over a minute. Any help would be gr8.
