One more point here, while AlexB's "help" usually isn't (even

understandable), he is correct about the low amount of current that a USB

port can supply.

For many, adding a USB 'hub' that has it's own power adapter has solved

some USB issues. (I'm not saying this *is* your problem, I still don't

know what devices you are using.)
