Also, my point stands: There’s NO OTHER ereader that has similar problems, so even if it is *my computer* that’s causing all of this it is also *my Kobo* causing all of this. There is no way around it, Kobo’s are just oversensitive in the USB department...
No, I shouldn't have said none, because I knew there was another report in this thread. But, it was balanced by the reports of no problems. It was the lack of reports outside the life of this thread.

The problem with comparing to other devices is that none of them work the same way or are accessed the same way by calibre. Of these devices, only Sony's use a database for the books. And the driver's access of the database is a lot less intense than the Kobo driver.

Thanks! Will give that another try once I feel like rebuilding my database again...
Connect when calibre is not running and take a copy of the database. Then you can restore that afterwards if it gets corrupted.
