I'm currently having issues with an original Arduino Host Shield where the "OSC did not start" usually shows up whenever I try to use the shield. I have an Elegoo MEGA Arduino 2560 R3 and an Elegoo Arduino Uno R3 and have tried to connect the shield to both, but the error eventually pops up and persists the entire time. I powered both using a computer and am connecting a scanner to the shield. Is there something wrong with the shield or is it something else?
EDIT: I accidentally typed "OSC did not work" instead of "OSC did not start." Whoops.
Unplug the scanner. Inspect the shield for bent pins, etc.
Run the board_qc sketch included with the USB Host Shield 2.0 library. It might produce more information on what is failing. Post the serial console output.
I'm currently using the stock code from the USBHIDBootKbd sketch (I didn't put it so I don't exceed the character count limit). Granted, the code I actually have is different, but this is also a case where the OSC does not reliably start. I ran this code for debugging purposes in place of my code, which displayed a similar frequency of errors. I don't know if it's because pressing the reset button is breaking the code, but I have no idea...

I've replugged the scanner and removed the shield. I don't see any bent pins, so it can't be that... I've ran the test and it gave me this the first time after uploading:

From a website that I found regarding this, the comment section had this second result and a person replied that it's normal (indeed, it worked after this test). However, what isn't is that this result doesn't happen all the time. It's as if the code becomes broken at some points in time. I don't want the OSC problem to happen whenever I start up the Arduino with the shield and want to fix it so that I don't receive an "OSC did not start" error anymore.
Hello! I have the same problem with the shield and the arduino one, when loading the PS3BT sketch I get the OSC message did not start..I searched for information and found that the problem could be that VBUS is not well fed, but check and receives the voltage it needs
Does not my USB shield burn or something?
Someone could help me, please

Could you help me understand, please?
my shield died?
Unfortunately, The above reset fix, did not work for me
Update: Changed from Due to ProMini 8MHz 3V3 and it works!
I could always read, "Die revision 03" and the Mini didn't work immediately.
Note: It is ProMini shield compatible, so some of the markings are wrong. Should be SS, MOSI, MISO, SCK.
Note: This ProMini shield runs the USB-A port at 3V3! It isn't too difficult to change that, by cutting the 3V3 track between the USB-A port and the via (in the image), and providing it 5V (see attached).
It sounds like some unassigned pin may be floating, or I2C (if used) doesn't have the pullup resistors connected.
Check your code and wiring against the examples that 'work'
