Solution

The Windows Device Manager
does not show the Renesas
Electronics USB 3.0 Host
Controller.

• Make sure that the PCI Express Card adapter is correctly installed in the PCIe slot.
• Remove the adapter and try a different PCIe slot in case the bus has conflicts.
• Repeat the driver installation procedure, then make sure that the device exists.

Right-click My Computer on your desktop, click Properties, then click the Device
Manager
. If the Renesas Electronics USB 3.0 Host Controller is shown, the PCI
Express Card adapter is working correctly.

• Make sure that your computer's operating system is updated to the latest version.

No USB peripheral is detected
by the computer.

• Check that all cables are correct and securely connected.
• Make sure that the USB device's power is turned on.
• Make sure that the devices are getting enough power.
• Make sure to plug the 4-pin power cable into the adapter card to provide sufficient

power to USB devices, or use self-powered USB devices.

• A long cable may cause poor performance. A USB repeater must be used if the cable is

longer than 3.5 meters.

• Make sure there is no problem with the adapter installation.

Conflict with other Windows
USB PCI adapters.

• Conflicts are indicated by an entry with a red X or yellow !
• Turn off your computer and move the adapter to another available slot, then re-install

the USB 3.0 driver.

• An exclamation point usually means there is a resource conflict between this adapter

and another adapter in your system. Move the adapter to another slot, then restart your
computer. Windows will re-configure itself and re-assign resources. Check your device
manager again.
