Logitech G920 Not Detected on PC just with EXTENSION cable
Hello. i can see lot of question about problem with logitech G920 etc... but my problem is special i think.. and i have little solution at the end..
My logitech G920 is working pretty well. Usb plug in PC and i can play on my PC. But ... i want enjoy my TV so i decide buy extention cable ( active cable, better, more expensive cable usb-a 2.0 than common extention usb cable 2.0) After put this usb in my computer again, my wheel g920 start spin (calibrate or something) and then i can even feel feedback so he seems like activated But in GHUB i can not see DEVICE / my wheel. Everytime when i use extention cable ( 5 meters) i can not see wheel in GHUB. I reinstalled him, i updated windows, i updated everything (light of xbox logo on wheel is stationary lighting, not blinking. So i dont know where is problem.. i used lot of tutorials and help from youtube or forums. 90% of people has issue with NO detected wheel in GHUB but with ORIGINAL cable WITHOUT extention.. so for these people is solution -> reinstall GHUB, little changes in config etc etc.. but i am playing on PC normal without extention cable :D i tried 3 different active extention cable. Even common usb 2.0 cable without active if some mirracle happens but with him my wheel dont even calibrate or detected . just error about problem overvoltage what is logical cause of lenght 5 meters 🙂
so... i checked last solution on this website and it sounds very weird or easy...this solution says : people should try pull of ALL usb cable from motherboard (mouse, keyboard. camera etc etc) and restart PC, then put wheel in PC with extention active cable usb-a 2.0. and guess what.. Its working ! i can finally play and i can see wheel in GHUB. :D but why. Then put all usb in PC like mouse, keyboard,camera etc.. and i can play.. But this move i have to do everytime when i want to play with WHEEL ... Maybe i helped someone but i am typing this for a question/ help -> WHY I HAVE TO DO THIS ? where is problem ? can you help me ? thanks..
Sorry for my bad language, i am from Slovakia.
With regards Timoteon...
