Today I was just going on my windows 11 computer when I wasn't able to use my mouse, before it worked fine, but suddenly I gotten a error message telling me it was drawing to much power from the USB port, it was weird as I didn't expect a mouse to be able to draw that much power, even my controller didn't turn on either

    That's it, these ports are shorted, using them is dangerous for your devices

    May have shorted the usb port, have you tried another usb port? Does the issue persist?

    Hi Francisco,

    I'm Rodrigo and I will help you.

    It can be a sign of a worse problem, even with many RGB lights, a mouse does not go close to the USB power limit.

    The device can be shorting the USB power and the other devices connected to the same internal hub are disconnected for protection. It is good to check the USB port too, if it is dirty or bent, can lead to this situation too.
