The error message from my Device Manager

"Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)

A request for the USB device descriptor failed."

((Port_#0011.Hub_#0003))

So today I came back to my PC which had been working 100% fine and now I keep getting this USB device not recognized note popping up a thousand times in the bottom right. No idea what's happened.

Things I have tried:

  • - System Restore
    - Update Drivers
    - Turning it on and off again at mains
    - Windows Hotfixes
None of which have worked.

It's actually beginning to drive me a bit bonkers after checking the forums here for a solution I can't find. Any help and teachings as to how to solve this problem would be fantastic.
