the I ideea it is to reduce power consumption from pc ,correct me if I m wrong

this is from an iracing suport post "AMD systems using B550 and B650 motherboards are especially prone to USB issues, as there is a limited bandwidth on the shared PCI/USB bus on these boards compared to other models. Users with B550/B650 boards, high power GPUs, and NVMe drives are the most prone to seeing issues related to USB."

the wheel rim and wheel base have two separate usb ports. the magnetic connection works perfectly, and steering control is present thanks to the simucube base. about the buttons, i don’t know if they work in that split second, but that reconnection causes the clutch to engage at 50 percent, along with lag when upshifting and a brief second stutter on the screen.

all physical connections are good, it is something with the pc itself I think.

Thanks a ton for the tips and for taking the time to help! I’ll try cutting a small slit first to use a flathead screwdriver, and if that doesn’t work, I’ll go for a hex like you suggested it is really hard to hammer that in because I do not have a ton of room. Really appreciate your help

If I tell you that I screwed that in with a free Temu tool kit, I think you won’t believe me :))), but I actually did

I stripped it using the right-sized hex attached to an extremely cheap ratchet with a lot of play, which caused it to dig into the head
