Try another card if one is available.

I get the impression that the InkPad is more "fussy" about hardware specs. For example, my PC has 2 USB connectors on the front. I built my PC and those USB connectors are connected to a little circuit card which has plugged into it a USB cable from the motherboard. When I plug the PocketBook into those front USB connectors it keeps connecting and disconnecting. I hit upon the idea of connecting it to the USB connectors on the back that are on the motherboard and then it works fine. It also works fine connected to a USB hub that's connected to one of the USB ports on the back. Other e-readers have no problem with the front panel USB connectors.
