Hmm. I have a paid membership. I have found a lot of hard to find drivers
there over the years. I've never had any such side effects. I think they
have some kind of software you can download to detect devices on your
computer. Maybe that's what does it. I never installed that. I usually know
what driver I'm looking for and it's always for some other computer than my
own.

Unless this is something that has just started real recently.
