There are tolerances for USB transmitters, USB cables and USB receivers. So long as the sum total of these margins is not exhausted the system will work reliably, otherwise there will be various errors, the extent depending on how far the margins have been exhausted. This is nature of digital communications: things are "perfect" up to a point and then start falling apart. If you want to know whether it was the cheap computer, the cheap USB cable or the cheap USB device that wasn't working right there is test equipment you could buy, but it could cost 100 times the equipment and cables you might want to test. A simpler solution is to avoid long cables and to junk equipment that doesn't work reliably with a bunch of other devices.
