Hi!
I have a problem. Few days ago I have bought new active hub (LogiLink UA0096). Hub recognizes devices rightly and I can use them. Unfortunately, Hub is not able to eject them properly. After the ejection Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit (on my ASUS N65VZ) announces that device can be safely removed, but hub still powers the peripheral and LED control proves it. Normally, power should be cut off, external HD (for example) should spin down. And then removal would be possible.
I checked whether the same problem exists when computer is booted directly from Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy Salamander Live CD. It doesn't. Hub can extinguish devices properly. LED controls turns off as they should. So, hardware problem can be excluded. I checked the hub as well on my small netbook (Acer Aspire One AOD260) powered by Windows 8.1 Pro 32-bit. Everything works properly. Computer can cut off energy from the given usb port of the described hub.
So, I reinstalled the Generic USB Hub drivers on my ASUS computer. It did not solve the issue. I know that presumably installing Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit from scratch could be helpful as well as so-called in-place upgrade. However, until now, my Windows haven't found any integrity violations. Actually, I want not to reinstall Windows or execute in-place upgrade. It would be too time consuming.
Help me find less invasive method, please.
Thank you
