I've encountered issues with USB devices, particularly the steelseries rival 3 mouse. My setup includes Windows 11 64bit (reinstalled recently), 8GB DDR4 3200, 512GB NVMe SSD, Intel Pentium Gold 7505 processor, Intel UHD graphics, and an HP laptop (17-cn0216ng). I own two identical mice and a keyboard that stopped working after about half a year of minimal use. Initially, the mouse would freeze during gameplay, especially with small movements, and later it would completely stop responding or even lower my DPI. After returning it under warranty, the new mouse began having similar problems after just a few weeks of daily use. I've tried switching USB ports, using another laptop, uninstalling GG software, updating BIOS and mouse drivers, and even used a mechanical keyboard that failed quickly. It's unclear if this is due to my peripherals or if my USB ports are causing the issue. Any further questions or assistance would be appreciated!

You're looking for a simple method to confirm the voltage output matches specifications. These meters can quickly check if the ports are delivering the correct power. Would you like to know how they perform across different systems?

I don’t have one, and indeed the keyboard and mouse aren’t functioning on another computer either.
