    USB devices not working


    Since my PC was updated to Windows 10 I have been having trouble with USB devices not working. It appears the drivers do not load or do not work. Example is my Saitek rudder pedals. They appear to be fully installed and appear in the device list but they do not work. I go into the device manager and update the driver to the exact same driver and it works.
    I plug in my iPhone and it is recognized as an iPhone but appears in the Other Devices with a yellow exclamation. A check and it says there are no drivers. Manually find the drivers and update them and it is good until I pull it out. Next time I plug it in same thing.
    Phantom 3 pro wont show the disk drive and have to load in a generic disk drive driver and all good. This list goes on.

    I have found no suggestion on the net that help me so far.

    Anyone else had this issue and have they solved it?

    Thanks.

    Okay I finally worked out what was going on. Somehow the BIOS setting for USB had been changed so Legacy Devices had been disabled. Enabled this and drivers are being used correctly. Not sure why this would cause the symptoms above but it is the only change I made and it now works.
