USB-C port issues

I installed this card in a new Intel Ghost Canyon computer. Installation was easy, the card was recognized immediately. 5 USB 3.0 ports work properly. But the USB-C ports connect quickly and then disconnect repeatedly. I tried 2 different SSDs and both had the same problem. Both drives work fine when connected to another computer. They also work great when plugged into one of the NUC's built-in USB-C ports. So the problem is with the card. Tried the driver that came with the card. That was a mistake because it made the problem worse. USB 3.0 ports were slower and the driver loaded slowly when the computer restarted. I would like to know if ANYONE managed to power the USB-C ports.
