Yes, USB3 is a recurring failure issue - there may be a definitive post - but USB3 often fails Windows and MAC.

Try a USB2 hub - sometimes is has to be powered, but my last use was unpowered. 
Also, It may be your cable if you get no recognition at all on connection.

Thanks, I will get a USB2 hub.

There are many posts on USB3 on here, going into the why and how - but I want to dispel one thing.

USB 3.0 in itself is not incompatible with V-USB and therefore Digisparks - but some of the USB 3.0 controllers seem to not like the timing of the Digispark's USB

The result is the same - some USB 3 ports won't work without a USB 2 (or 1) hub in front of them. But it is not by any means all of them - in fact 4 out of 5 of my computers with USB3 work fine, one doesn't at all without a hub.
