44The Controller Does Not Have Enough Resources for This Device SOLVED [Tutorial].
Some Windows users are seeing the “Not Enough USB Controller Resources” error when plugging in a device/peripheral inside the USB port. Most of the time, this is reported to occur with USB 3.0 ports. The issue is not specific to a particular Windows version as it’s reported on Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.
If you are like me, you’ve got a plethora of USB devices connected to your computer at any given time. With USB hubs and universal docking stations being so common today, it’s easy to be able to connect dozens of USB devices without ever needing to unplug anything. That is, until you get the dreaded “Not enough USB controller resources – The controller does not have enough resources for this device.” error message down by the Windows system tray icons.
At that moment you’re likely saying to yourself, “How can this be? My state-of-the-art system can’t handle just one more USB device?” Unfortunately, in the upgrade from USB 2.0 to USB 3.0, there are some trade-offs in terms of fewer devices that can be connected at once. And those limits apply not just to USB 3.0 devices, but to all devices connected to a USB 3.0 host.
