So for the longest time my pc has had weird issues with it's usb ports. In particular my xbox 360 wireless receiver has gone crazy several times before when other usb devices are plugged in at the same time.
Now recently I bought a blue yeti USB microphone. Immediately upon using it me and my friend noticed our controllers weren't working anymore. Thinking it was the receiver's fault I uninstalled the receiver's driver and blah blah blah. Turns out having the microphone plugged in was f'ing with the xbox 360 wireless receiver. So then I try to record with the mic again and instead of the receiver malfunctioning this time,the receiver worked perfectly while the MICROPHONE malfunctioned. I switched them around to different usb ports and it's like musical peripherals. The devices take turns malfunctioning while another works. Mouse and keyboard seem to be fine.I'm wondering if the xbox 360 receiver is just faulty. Sometimes having my iphone plugged in next to it has caused it to malfunction. I once plugged in my microphone and my iphone, which was plugged in via a usb, disconnected and reconnected... I'm thinking a powered usb hub is in order for me here, but in the meantime what can I do to treat this obvious usb power issue on my pc?
I have an M12II bronze 750watt seasonic evo edition like this http://www.seasonicusa.com/M12II-Bronze-650-750-850.htm I had 2 different power supplies before this and i've always had the same usb issues.
