After hours of reading and troubleshooting, I found our that some Asus has their software causing constant issues.
Windows 11 deleted my AsIO.sys and non of my controllers would either not load, or crash, while everything seemed ok.
Windows was basically fighting Asus in use, causing severe crashes and spikes, disconnected controllers.
The last update I took completely ignored hercules controllers and my Pioneer has audio phasing issues on my Asus, but it has its own asio drivers.
I couldn't fix it, got tired of waiting for any type of updates or firmware.
I bought another laptop, and will never by an Asus. Imo. If you have one, I hope you are having good luck.

I'm curious what model of ASUS? Gaming laptop?
It sounds like the machine could use a clean install of windows 11, get rid of all the bloatware.

Did you manage to return the laptop or are you lumbered with a laptop you can't use?
If you have a good computer repair shop not too far away I'm sure they could help resolve these issues, that's what I do when I've exhausted every other DIY solution.

I got stuck, I took memory and hard drives and tossed it. Thank you.
