Issue with Memorex Mini TravelDrive

Odd...plug this into my laptop and it works like a charm. Plug it into my desktop and it locks it right up! Have to reboot.

Any ideas? This is the 1gig size. Really like the U3 concept.

do you have a ton of USB devices plugged into your desktop?

Go into your device manager, open the properties for your USB ROOT HUB and look at the power consumption. If you're getting close to the max then the thumb drive may be pushing your system over the limit.

I have 7 USB devices plugged into my PC. Not including this item.

One of these is a USB going to my USB hub built into my LCD monitor and I have a USB floppy and Logitech Quickcam connected there. Otherwise all my USB devices (except one other for my Timex Datalink that's rarely connected) have their own AC power adapter. I wouldn't think it would be an issue.

Thoughts?

Update:

I show 9 USB Root Hubs in the device manager. 4 of these on a PCI card installed. 2 of these on a memory card reader installed in a 3.5" bay. 4 more on the LCD monitor. All of which connect to the computer as source. They read as follows:

1) 2ma USB composite device (I think the Nomad MP3 player)/0ma 1 port available
2) 0ma 2 ports available
3) 60ma HID-compiant device (battery backup)/0ma 1 port available
4) 0ma 2 ports available
5) 0ma 2 ports available
6) 0ma 2 ports available
7) 0ma 2 ports available
8) 100ma USB Mass Storage Device (200g USB drive)/0ma Generic USB Hub 4 ports/ 0ma 6 ports available
9) 500ma USB Mass Storage Device (hmm, must be the memory card reader with the USB ports on front)/0ma 5 ports available

I got off the phone with a tech support manager at Memorex. He tells me there is a device conflict with the U3 software and a device installed on my desktop computer.

Anyone know of any conflicts or forums for this sort of thing?

Thanks..
