USB Debugging on Galaxy Nexus causes Windows 7 to freeze

G'day,
When I have my Galaxy Nexus plugged in for morethan about 5 minutes with USB debugging on, Windows completely freezes – the last ~1 second of sound is looped throught the speakers, the laser in my mouse goes off, and it completely dies; the only way to 'fix' it is to do a hard reboot. I've looked around the web but I haven't found any (working) solutions. I've tried various different drivers, using "the right cable", and so on.
If you have any suggestions, that'd be great.
Cheers

EDIT: I've found and looked through a bug reported on the Android bug page, but nothing there is working for me, and the PC is Windows 7 64-bit

EDIT 2: I thought I'd fixed the problem by wiping the SDK off my computer then reinstalling the entire thing. This seemed to work for a while but then it did eventually freeze.

I've had my Galaxy Nexus plugged in with USB Debugging on for about 12 hours now, and the solution seems to have been not to use a USB 3.0 port – I plugged the phone in through a USB (2.0) hub on the side of my monitor and it's going great.

Hope that helps anyone else with this problem.
