    Hi all

    For months now I have been hanging and crashing and losing connection with my one or both my vive controllers, I have been through everything reinstalling and setting back to default various apps and overlays. I believe I have cured my issue at last when I noticed that a 'windows' update had set my usb to power saving
    If you are suffering similar problems go to 'device manager' open 'Universal Bus Controllers' right click on 'Host controllers' select properties go to the power management tab and uncheck 'allow the computer to turn off this device'
