I believe i have a rootkit virus.

Did you try one peripheral at a time?

Sounds like one of them is causing issues and if you move them all between computers the issue won't go away but this is almost certainly not a virus or anything of the sort.

Some time ago all my peripherals started disconnecting randomly at the same time. I've tried them on multiple computers and I even sent my pc in to the website where i bought it and they wrote my nvme was "unstable", but nothing wrong with the usb ports. I used a different pc while my other pc was at theirs and i have the same problem. I tried to use malwarebytes but i use a old harddrive with 9 years of on time so didn't finish even though i had it on for over a day. It didn't detect anything but i still have the problem. Do I have to replace everything or doesn't it spread?

It happens most with my mouse so I'll try unplugging everything else. Thanks!
