This may not be the solution to your problem, but we had numerous Dell laptops that had to be checked with a diskette from Dell to see if they were among the many that had defective memory installed. These were the Inspiron 3500 models. Good luck. Also, you may want to make sure that USB support is installed correctly and try another port if there's one available.

Problem could be due to older USB chipset. Many high speed USB devices will not work correctly on these.

Dells have a bad habbit of not being up to day on the bios revision, also remove & reinstall the driver. Have you verified that the port is good with another usb device? Also most laptops have issues with the ir port, attempt to turn it off. On the Lat. series for example it will conf. with the pcmcia modem. Also check it on a second system, a "Baseline system". -al
