If it isn't, I'd try using a different USB port for the disk. Second, try to use shielded USB cables. Cheap USB cables--especially for things like disks--are a bad idea. Third, if you have an external wifi antenna, try changing its orientation or get an extension cable (they are available) and move the antenna away from the disk. If the disk is part of an integrated docking station, then I'd contact the manufacturer and see if it's a) defective; or b) if this is a known problem and they have a solution. > > -Sherman > > > > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 226437340 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Cuteness can be overcome through sufficient bastardry - - --Mark 'Kamikaze' Hughes - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
