#Renesas usb 3.0 driver not working drivers#
OBJECT: Demonstrate that problem lies with WIN 7 / WIN 8 - Once connected, that will let your Host Controller and USB 3.0 drivers off the hookĪ. Windows 8 Consumer Preview with Renesas USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 0096 (Microsoft) This driver is Native to WIN 8, when uninstalled, RE-installed automatically with 'Scan for Hardware Changes' or RestartĪnything from 0 to 6 re-installations of USB 3.0 driver required for connection to take effect Once achieved, connection is solid, can backup etc BUT lost on restart.

I was hoping someone here might have had similar issues and could offer some ideas to fix it. Unfortunately I do not own any other device with a USB 3.0 port or connector so I cannot try those at this time, but am working on it. I have received a new USB 3.0 cord from WD for my Passport and I have the same issue. However, it is often a chore to get it to connect and it has become very annoying. When it works, it's full USB 3.0 speed and I am satisfied. Sometimes a reboot fixes it and sometimes if I unplug and plug it back in a few times it works.
