Hi everyone, Since couple of months, I have an issue with my Framework Laptop 16" ( AMD Ryzen™ 7040 Series - 15th batch - Working on Windows 11 - BIOS 3.5): The USB-A placed on port 5 (right - middle position) randomly stops. It happens generally after 3 or 4 hours of use. The only way to fix it is to remove and put again the card, what is quite annoying. I already searched and found some topics, but with no solution. Is there some solutions? Thanks ---

Same issue, not yet found a solution. Seems to happen regardless of which port the USB A card is inserted in ---
