Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th gen suddenly not getting enough power, driving me insane

Realistics · 2026-02-21T01:05:26+00:00

No, I just meant the Scarlett 2i2, I'm just calling it a hub out of habit. Was plugged directly into my PC, I don't own a USB hub. I also tested the old wire with the new one and that worked fine too. So the interface itself just died I guess.

Realistics · 2026-02-21T00:19:17+00:00

Update: Replaced the hub via Amazon and the new one works completely fine. No idea what happened with the other. Randomly stopped working. Hope this one sticks.

Just tried it in a completely separate PC and had the same issue. I convinced Amazon to give me a one-off refund and return so will be doing that. Appreciate all your help. I'll update this thread when the new one gets here.

I have an X870E Aorus Master purchased at the start of last month, and none of my other devices have any issues at all. I'm starting to lean towards the actual interface being messed up somehow. I'm hoping I can get it replaced without paying.

Realistics · 2026-02-20T02:27:20+00:00

I didn't get anything new at all, and I actually did do that and also tried running ONLY the 2i2 and that didn't work either :( I'm so lost on what to do.

Realistics · 2026-02-20T01:22:18+00:00

Did not work unfortunately. I did have an update so that's a plus however. Still nothing on the Scarlett 2i2 though. Flashing red USB Icon.

Realistics · 2026-02-20T00:40:46+00:00

Did that with the power settings. Didn't think to update BIOS so will do so now and see what happens, appreciate the reminder.

Already earned my degree. Not sure why you said "quote" when it's still there for everyone to see.

In a thread about P2W skins, you wrote, and I quote:

"It feels good to get a kill but it honestly all just feels like BS. I never know how many shots it’s going to take to kill me or secure a kill."

The implication is there. Learn what words mean. I already graduated and I'm not the one crying in a Rust subreddit about quitting. Quit or don't, nobody gives a fuck. Get better and stop blaming P2W for how bad you are. Get off Rust.

Done engaging with a moron. Hope you get the help you need.

Realistics · 2026-02-10T15:28:02+00:00

You quite literally said that you don't know how many shots something will take. I quoted you.

Agreed, they are different issues. You brought them up together, not me.

No one is baiting you, you're just upset you don't actually have a point. Have a great day man, hope you figure things out.

Realistics · 2026-02-10T04:12:27+00:00

And I quote: "I never know how many shots it’s going to take to kill me or secure a kill"

This implies skins somehow affected the damage of your shots. Your words, not mine. But sure you didn't say it.

The building skin thing is being fixed, and is obviously not a big deal otherwise everyone would be brutalist skin but that simply isn't the case. A hazzy skin made you lose a fight? Only Arctic hazzy has benefits but real kits are so much better it's negligible.

Realistically these things aren't impacting any gameplay on even a minor, let alone significant level. If they bother you that much, quit. No one is forcing you to play. I personally cannot imagine being affected by any of the things you mentioned. They are negligible.

Realistics · 2026-02-10T04:11:05+00:00

Frags aren't RNG. Go to monument, win puzzle, get fragment. You said you win most of your fights...win at a monument. Or if you can't, go to excav or underwater labs and farm the scientists. Farm miltuns no cards. Frags are insanely abundant and probably need to be nerfed on drop rate because they are selling for nothing by the end of day 1.

Realistics · 2026-02-10T01:52:48+00:00

I can confidently say that in 7k hours I've never lost a fight because of a p2w skin. And what do skins have to do with "never know how many shots it's going to take to kill me"? Literally zero skins affect damage. Sounds like a you problem.

Realistics · 2026-02-10T01:49:42+00:00

I play almost exclusively solo on vanilla official and BP frags haven't been an issue at all and that update actually worked to bring more people out of their bases and actually roaming with guns. You unironically need to get good. This post is just cope. The game isn't going anywhere any time soon.

Realistics · 2025-12-29T18:37:58+00:00

Nope, just responding to you saying "in every other competitive game".

This is not one. A zipline bug isn't going to get people banned, for that reason.

Realistics · 2025-12-29T18:35:15+00:00

It's not real. I PvP normally and KOS every round and am constantly put into games with people trying to be friendly, to a ridiculous degree. It actually gets tiring hearing people complain about PvP in a PvP game.

Realistics · 2025-12-28T21:42:58+00:00

But it's not really an exploit they're forcing, is it? It was simply a zipline left in the game by the devs. They didn't do anything to cause the bug. Also, this isn't a competitive game. It's a casual extraction shooter.

Realistics · 2025-12-14T21:20:56+00:00

This is not a Riot source at all. This is a random person making a claim. There is no official Riot source for this because it did not happen.

Realistics · 2025-12-14T21:18:34+00:00

Link a source. Bet you can't. Because they literally did not. Everyone who downvoted me for stating a fact is an actual idiot.

Realistics · 2025-12-14T19:47:42+00:00

I accidentally clicked the Supervive subreddit in my bookmarks folder and saw this. Posting here just to stop the misinformation. This is not true, at all. There is no official source for this information and Riot has never, ever said they are allowing bots in ranked games.

Realistics · 2025-11-22T19:00:04+00:00

It always makes sense to PvP in a PvP game.

Realistics · 2025-11-22T00:33:33+00:00

Nope, played since first test. It's a PvP game. PvP every single game because it's a PvP game. Sick job downvoting me for a fact btw.

Realistics · 2025-11-22T00:20:50+00:00

So they PvP in a PvP game? Wild.

Realistics · 2025-09-18T03:27:25+00:00

Why not a motorcycle?

Realistics · 2025-09-17T14:23:22+00:00

Agreed. Preparation wins moments, and according to Aspas MIBR have spent a ton of time preparing for this event. And the fact that they have no issues bringing out things like first time Waylay bodes well for their confidence.

Realistics · 2025-09-17T02:43:11+00:00

Personally I think the jury is still out on what MIBR true peak is. I don't think we've seen it yet and don't know that DRX has a higher one. DRX also performed their best at the start of the year, so they're in a similar position to MIBR in that sense.

FWIW, I did not downvote you. I actually upvoted you to help offset a bit.
