Hi there,

This is my new laptop. I got it just one week. However, USB 3.0 port is very weird. It always stop working when i used it for several hours. I try to update the driver, but i still seems not working.

How do you know this? Is some external device connected and you use it several hours for data transfer or something similar?
And after notebook restart everything is OK again?

Maybe stupid question now but why to use mouse receiver on USB 3.0 port?
This port is interesting for data transfer or usage with external device with high data flow but not for such “basic” operation like mouse usage.

In my opinion there is no problem at all. Use mouse with USB 2.0 only.

So how long does it take until the USB 3.0 port stops working?
Does it interrupt the data throughput?
Did you use the USB 3.0 compatible devices?

On the Toshiba European driver page you can find the USB 3.0 driver version 2.0.34.1.
Are u using this version?
