Windows 10: Usb composite device setup and ready

Win10.

What does this message on boot up mean "USB composite device setup and ready.." ?

The machine was just beset with a bug, flashing a message about 'last usb device connected not recognised..' and we couldn't find anything wrong in device manager or anywhere...

complete with a 'ding, ding' sort of sound in the headphones all the time..

and device manager doing a sort of 'shake' periodically along with the 'ding ding'.

I pulled out the usb webcam and that fixed it.

Booted up alright after that....

But straight away reported 'usb composite device set up and ready to go..'

What's going on? What would that mean? Anything I could do/should do about his installation in light of these happenings?

I have Kyhi's disk on usb and a win10 64 boot install usb - but I've never found a way to use either to save a crashing win10 install and I've had two of them in the last year......

USB Composite Device

USB Composite Device is an older USB device and might not work with USB 3.0

Plug the device into an available USB 2.0 port, and click Next. Otherwise, click Cancel.

The printer cable was working perfectly fine until a few weeks ago. The same problem erupted before but after several minutes on trying to fix it, the printer worked. I am aware that the USB is definitely in a 2.0 port and not a 3.0. Prior to an update (I
think), the printer worked perfectly fine until the problem appeared. I did not remove or put the wire in any other slot and it suddenly stopped working.

I have tried to update all of the drivers under "Universal Serial Bus Controller" and everything was up to date. I also tried to then put the cable in different ports, yet nothing.

USB Composite Device can’t work properly with USB 3.0.

Not fixed

If the USB 2.0 device is incompatible with USB 3.0, plugging it into a USB 2.0 port can solve the problem.
