    We can safely conclude that the fault was the old USB hub. I have not had a single crash using the new one

    Well, so far it has never crashed without it being attached, and i do use this PC a lot. I'll give an update if it should crash without the hub, or when i've thoroughly tested the new hub. If a new hub doesn't help i might just do a clean install of everything. Thanks again for the help, my...

    Got the latest BIOS update and a few others today, and got another crash. I'm waiting on a new hub that should arrive next tuesday.

    It WAS pretty cheap... I'll look into the failed installs when i get time tomorrow and i'll check chipset and so forth, update if possible. I'll give an update when i've done so, hopefully it's as simple as getting a new hub.

    Thank you so much for the speedy reply! The usb hub does have it's own power supply, but it is generally not that good. With more than two devices plugged in i get random disconnects of the mouse and launchpad. Power issues i think. I changed my power settings to balanced, i didn't think it...

    Hi PCHF My laptop keeps getting DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION blue screens for the last two months. Usually they happen when i've got my 4-slot USB hub plugged in, and am working in ableton. Everything will freeze, with audio still playing for a few seconds, then the bluescreen. I don't recall any...
