[SOLVED] To much power draw on seemingly any USB Device

Community Support
1

I have a 11th gen Framework Laptop and at some point recently Windows (10) started sending me notifications about a unknown usb device drawing too much power. I tested around a bit with my expansion cards (no other usb devices were plugged in) and this issues comes up when any card is plugged in at any port. I have a usb c, usb a, displayport and hdmi card.

Edit: I also tried connecting a USB hub directly which also resulted in the same notification.

2nd Edit: Now the notification showed up with just the power cable connected :frowning:

I’d get in contact with support if you haven’t already, I’m sure they’d be happy to help troubleshoot this (just know that responses may be a little slow since they are responding to a lot of questions about the new announcements right now)

After contacting the support and trying a lot of different things it seems like fully resetting the mainboard state fixed this issue (Link to the guide: Fully Resetting the Mainboard State - Framework Guides)
