I doubt it is as simple as the cable. I just plugged the Aura ONE into a different port in the laptop. In that, if failed as above. This port is interesting as it is the one that is enabled to charge devices when the laptop is of. And when I plug the Glo HD or Aura ONE into it, the device takes about three times as long to display the connect prompt. For the other devices, they never show the prompt, but they do charge. The third port has the mouse receiver plugged into it, so I haven't tried it recently.

In event viewer, the only thing I can see that be related are in the Windows System log. I have a mass of EventId 51 at around the time of the above failure. The message is:

Code:
An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk1\DR17 during a paging operation.
And one EventId 153:

Code:
The IO operation at logical block address 0xa58ba for Disk 1 (PDO name: \Device\000000d4) was retried.
There are a lot of these scattered through the log yesterday, so it seems like thee are it. But, I'll grab the other cable later and see if they appear when using it.

Anyone know what they mean? Or suggestions in the event viewer of where to look? Also, I can telnet into the device and have a look. Suggestions of the places to look would be good.
