Windows 10: USB Devices keep disconnecting

Hello , I have a problem with my USB devices. All devices keep disconnecting for like 1-3 seconds. This problem appeared after i reinstalled Windows.
I tried a lot of fixes but it didnt work. ( tried windows 7/8.1/10 , update drivers , disable power management shuting down my usb ports from Power Settings )
I tried to update the latest chipset from motherboard official site ( MSI ). I have a really old mobo msi g31tm-p21.

Back then , i had a problem in Device Manager. 3-4 Universal Host Controlers were showed with an exclamation mark ( Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (code 43) ). They disapeared after i installed the chipset but the problem still persist even tho there are no more exclamation marks. Imgur: The magic of the Internet

Any ideas how to solve this ?

:)

 

I get the noise that something disconnected (like with usb devices),

sometimes, I get the noise that something disconnected (like with usb devices), and after a while (after 2 disconnect sounds) it stops, but happens again when I restart my computer

all I wish to know is, is there a tool I can use that tracks whatever disconnects in the way of usb devices that I can't seem to see visually

USB devices are disconnecting and reconnecting often! Creators Update

Hello,

Thank you for sharing this to us. We suggest that you run the Hardware troubleshooter. Windows comes with this built-in troubleshooter. If you recently installed a new driver or plugged-in a hardware and face some things that are not working as you’d
like them to, use this troubleshooter. Please follow the steps below:

• On Cortana or search, type in Control Panel
• Type Troubleshooting in the search box on the upper right corner and hit enter.
• Click on Troubleshooting tab.
• Click on View all option on the upper left corner.
• Select the Hardware and Devices options from the list.
• Click Next to run the Hardware and Device Troubleshooter.

Looking forward to the result.

 

Over on answers.microsoft.com, a Windows Insider MVP recommends trying a repair install to see if this fixes your issue. It seems like a recent Windows 10 update has borked USB capabilities on many PCs (perhaps including yours). If this works, you can apply updates one at a time until your USB problem recurs. Then you can uninstall that problem update and block it from being reapplied. Hopefully, when the 1803 upgrade emerges in the next month or so, it won't have that problem and you can sidestep the issue by upgrading.

Just a thought......have you re-installed the USB drivers from MSI for your board.......

 

If you are talking about the chipset , yes i downloaded it from MSI website.

 

Most if not all manufactuers will also offer USB drivers based on your OS.......see the example for my board manufactuer.....

 

this motherboard is old , so i don't have that feature. (MSI g31tm-p21).
I tried to find the drivers even with a program Driver Booster but no results.

 

You could try using the Wayback Machine, then visiting the MSI website at around the time your motherboard was released, or a year or two after that. Chances are pretty good you'd be able to get drivers that way. Here's a great tutorial on that very topic: "How to Use the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine."
