I plug all my USB devices into my computer. It seams to be more related to one printer. If I unplug it, the drives work. Oh, and the pocket media drive has its own connection in the drive bay. No cables for that one. The printer causing these issues is an older HP all-in-one machine. Its software will not load on Vista, so I just use it for a fax and copier. I'd get rid of it, but I just spent $80 on ink cartridges on the damn thing.
This is what I hate about computers. The damn things should be smart enough to just tell you what's wrong.
