It may be a separate issue to drivers, because I have this other issue where after waking up from sleep, I have to either reboot or physically remove the USB port and plug it back in to make the USB work. I’ve disabled “allow windows to put this device to sleep” for every single USB titled thing in device manager, so I’m not sure what the issue is. I plan on installing a small linux partition at some point to play around and see if I like it.
If you really moved the hard drive from one laptop to another without reinstalling the OS, that’s probably going to cause issues. It’ll “work” seemingly but it’s gonna be messy like this. You’re going to spend more time hunting weird shit than you would just doing a reinstall imo.
I’d backup what you need to and start over or you’re probably going to keep having strange issues.
