Hi guys.
For the past several months, I've been plagued by an unusual yet annoying problem, at random times every time I use my laptop, I hear the sound of one of my USB devices malfunctioning (it's usually between my gamepad and my optical mouse; both have malfunctioned randomly, but the former seems to have a worse case of the problem)...what could be causing these malfunctions to happen? I've looked up the problem on a search engine and noticed others have had these random malfunctions too...is it possible this problem could be some form of malware? If so, is there a specific brand of malware that could potentially be the culprit?
Thanks in advance.
