My problem remedied itself when I moved the problematic device to another usb port. I suggest trying a couple different ports for hours at a time until the resetting no longer occurs. It seems that some devices dont like to play together, either that or I have a bad port. Since i moved mine to another port at the time of my last post, I haven't had a single reset message. I had been getting reset messages constantly prior. No other change was made. I'm still using the same usb hardware and all software hasn't even been restarted since changing it.
