Hi,
I am using a custom-made PC with an ASRock H61M/U3S3 motherboard. Since it has only two USB 3.0 ports at the rear and no on-board header for any front USB 3.0 ports, I have installed a PCIe adapter card with two external USB 3.0 ports and one 19-pin header for the two USB 3.0 ports in the front panel of my Corsair case. The adapter card uses the common VIA VL80x chip, which does not require drivers under Windows 10.
This setup is very instable. I have tried two different adapter cards before, which never worked reliably. My latest attempt has been with the card "76666E" from Intos/InLine, which has been running fine most of the time.
However, I have recently noticed that the host adapter disappears from the device manager when the PC wakes up from sleep mode. It will reappear after a Windows reboot, listed as "VIA USB 3.0 eXtensible host controller - 1.0 (Microsoft)". This is a different problem from what many other people are reporting, where the controller is listed with an exclamation mark and error code: In my case it simply disappears from the device manager, and consequently no attached USB devices will be recognized any more.
While this is not a complete fault, it is still annoying because sleep mode is very useful: Now you need to restart the computer completely in order to be able to attach and use any devices after waking up from sleep mode.
Does anyone know a solution?
Thanks
