Would USB3 Texas Instruments chip work or should it be USB2 anyways?

1. I THINK, there is setting in virus menu how knobs act. If they snap or value scale. Somebody else can correct me if I'm wrong.

2. Tested this myself and I think its "normal" behavior when you have selected some category.
Set category to All and it shouldn't jump like that.

Hi Marc,
I contacted support but I also tried one last trick that was to re-install Ableton Live and that fixed the problem!
Hopefully this thread still helps somebody else if they have same kind of issues.

I have had lots of USB issues with Virus so I decided to give a try with beta firmware.
Well, update didn't work at all with my desktop system with win7. When it tried to start updating firmware, BSOD appeared every time.
But I got updated drivers and VST plugin installed just fine if I left virus unplugged.
I then used another PC (win8.1) and with that firmware update went fine to virus.

BUT now the actual problem is that if I open my projects in Ableton 9 that I worked earlier version of firmware (5.0.8), ableton says that it can't find virus plugin.

It's strange since I can see VST plugin in my Abletons browser and can drag'n'drop it to track but after that I lose my sounds and it starts with init patch!
Whats more strange is that if I replace that missing device with new virus plugin and load my sounds etc. and save that project...it says same message next time I try to open that project! Doh!

So, is there anyone else having same problem with beta firmware and ableton live ?
Any help with this one?

I've had exact same problem. I had to disable USB3 controller in BIOS to fix that.
Even my computer had USB2 connectors, they went to same root hub that caused the problem (I think).
Now that I have disabled USB3, there was found new USB2 root hub device.

I still got some sync problems but at least it's not freezing computer anymore...
