    Read up on EMI

    - space USB and other low voltage cables some distance away from stepper motor and AC power cables
    - use a High Quality USB cable with Ferrite Cores
    - in extreme cases, earthing the machine frame can help, sometimes static builds can cause discharges that creates EMI
    - try a different PC
