will system isn't crashing screens just go black. the system is still running and the USB devices are actually functioning. and the devices are USB powered. the only one other than the occasional flash drive. is a Scarlet 2i2 which is bus-powered. wich was what doing this time. I unplugged it from one Hackintosh and plugged it into the one having the issue and boom the screens just went black and the audio was working and even the scarlet was working. it is just bizarre. it doesn't happen all of the time but I would say maybe once a month. Also, Unit is grounded and running thru a UPS.
Does this occur if you use a USB hub? Maybe that would be a workaround to avoid this...
