My new build, having increasing USB overload issues from controller - Hardware & Software

Specs: GPU: 2x Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 Overclocked 4GB, SLI CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K PSU: XFX 850W Core Edition Mobo: ASUS Z97-PRO RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GBx2 HDD: WD Blue 1TB SSD: Crucial MX100 128GB I'm using flight simulator peripherals and now I'm getting USB overloads from one single controller, the rudder pedals. Powered USB 2.0 hub or no, it's started overloading consistently. I would normally write it off as a defective controller or something, but they've worked fine until now. This is a brand new build I put together, so I'm wondering if the PSU is underpowered and even small usage from the USB ports is sending the USB controller over the limit?? My keyboard, mouse, TrackIR, and HOTAS setup all work. It's confusing me how this issue is just now appearing 2 weeks in, instead of immediately. The rudder pedals still work on other devices. Included all specs of the build, in case anyone has suggestions on improvements. I'm still new to PC building.

Does it overload when that (and kb/m) is the only thing plugged in?

[QUOTE=Levelog;47188080]That's strange. The PSU should still be plenty for you.

Have you tried multiple ports on your computer?

Would this be the fault of the pedals? They've worked fine for a few months, until being used on this computer. They were still detectable and working on the other computer up until this last try.
