    This is how it detects your interface :)
    Tried installing these drivers, no changes.

    Can you check if the RESET_EN trace is cut?




    Apart from that, can you try on another computer? Or do a clean reinstall of the windows? And select US language for locale language settings...

    Just tried with second interface I have. It detects it differently.
    But the same problem occurs.

    Yeah, most likely windows issue. My advice, reinstall windows, use only the games and trusted software and don't install antivirus. Use that PC only for your gaming and not for surfing the web so there is not a chance to catch malware or spyware...

    Yes, the bottom board is the same... check the RESET_EN on it... just pull it apart carefully.

    Hello. I use only 1 USB cable from the computer to 8 USB ports with power supply. I use all 8 ports for peripheral devices. Does this affect the USB bandwidth? Sometimes while I'm playing, "Game Engine SimTool" is turned off.
