So I just got my new SSD (850 EVO), and installed Windows 10 on it. However, shortly after windows has loaded, I get the notification saying that one of my USB didn't get recognized (CODE 43), and in device manger it is says Device Descriptor Request Failed, tried uninstalling, updating, disabling nothing works. All my USB devices are working just fine without a single problem.

Edit: I noticed that after shutdown my PC, and unplugging all the USB's, the error does not pop-up, however, as soon as I plug in ANY of my USB devices, the error comes back. So the error is not cause by a specific USB device.

So apparently I had some outdated drivers, despite installing every driver provided by my MOBO and GPU manufacturer first thing after reinstalling Windows. But it didn't help, still get the same error.

So I reinstalled Windows completely from scratch, formatted every single partition and made news one. The problem is still there... I have no idea what is causing this.

After playing around with any setting in the BIOS that had anything related to USB I fixed it by disabling XHCI in the BIOS.
Not sure what that does, but everything seems fine.
Will it cause any problems if disabled for long time?
