Make sure you are not using USB ports with other devices like ext USB HD etc.

USB port are paired as one so watch where the USB is shared with. If PC active and used the should not disconnect you unless issues are other interference issues

Two USB 2.0, one USB 3.0. Problem occurs when using any of the three. Nothing else connected via USB.

I can only suggest is to try Beta driver

Otherwise you may need to contact support.

Using the beta driver. Is there any other driver that works on 8.1?

Re: A6100 keeps disconnecting

Does anyone have any new ideas on this?

I am having the same problem. It began suddenly after working perfectly in the same laptop for about a year now. I cannot think of anything at all I could have done in the past week or so that may have caused it.

I am and have been using the beta driver as it was the only option for win 8.1. Has that changed? Is there a newer driver? although since it has been working I don't think that is the problem but who knows.

any suggestions appreciated.

Mike
