Not sure if this is the right fix? We've added this issue to our memory dump diagnostic which can confirm.
Symptoms
You enable the USB Selective Suspend feature on a computer that is running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2. Then, the computer stops responding when one or more of the following conditions are true:
-
The computer enters the Sleep or Hibernate state.
-
One or more USB devices resumes from an idle state after a period of inactivity.
Note You can restart the computer to recover from this issue.
Cause
This issue occurs when an attached USB device resumes from the USB Selective Suspend state, and the USB hub incorrectly reports that the device is disconnected from the USB hub port. This incorrect status report may be caused by a hardware error in the USB hub or in the attached USB device. Then, the Microsoft USB hub driver (Usbhub.sys) incorrectly tries to obtain a spinlock that has already been obtained in the same thread. This causes a kernel-mode deadlock. Therefore, the computer stops responding.

Status
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
More Information
After you apply this hotfix, the issue described in the "Symptoms" section will not occur. However, the following issues may occur:
-
An attached USB device resumes from the USB Selective Suspend state when the computer is running. Then, Windows may report that the USB device is disconnected from the computer, or that the USB device is reconnected to the computer. Additionally, the affected USB device is unresponsive for several seconds to less than one minute.
-
When the computer tries to enter a Sleep or Hibernate state, there is no visible indication that an attached USB device is disconnected. When the computer resumes from the Sleep or Hibernate state, Windows reports that the USB device is disconnected from and reconnected to the computer.
To work around this issue, clear the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power check box for the affected USB device or USB Root Hub:
-
Click Start, type device manager in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.Note If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password and then click Continue.
-
On the View menu, click Devices by connection.
-
Expand the ACPI node, expand Microsoft ACPI-Compliant System, and then expand PCI bus.
-
Several USB universal host controllers will be listed.
-
Expand each USB universal host controller node, and then expand successive subnodes until you find the name of the USB device.
-
When you locate the affected device, right-click the device, and then click Properties.
-
If there is a Power Management tab, click the Power Management tab, and clear the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power check box, then click OK.
-
If there is no Power Management tab, click Cancel, then double-click the associated USB Root Hub, click the Power Management tab, clear the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power check box, then click OK.
Note You may have more than one attached USB device or USB hub. You can apply these steps to each USB device or USB Root Hub in turn to identify which one causes the issues. If the issue does not occur after you apply these steps to a particular device or USB Root Hub, then that device or USB Root Hub causes the issue.
