HELP: Max Gene V & Windows 8: Finding new hardware notification going off

Qwik
Level 7
I have a new system that uses the Asus Max Gene V board and I have Windows 8 on it. Every once in a while the 'find new hardware' or 'hardware disconnected' noise built into Windows 8 will randomly go off. Some times it happens a lot, some times only every other 5 minutes or so. Has anyone experienced this at all and know of a fix?

From reading forums it seems like it could be a USB issue (globally) but I've installed the latest USB drivers that I know of.

Any help would be appreciated!

Wonder if you need to keep installing those drivers because Windows update is the issue and constantly tries to update the drivers to ones it deems as being newer or better. I have had this problem heaps of times.


I allways switch off automatic driver updates when installing Windows to avoid these kind of things, but in a fresh install looks like we need to install almost eeeeevery driver u.u Never happened in Windows 8 Pro, now in Enterprise happens every fresh install 😕
