Out of curiosity, I plugged my Kobo into the back USB port. (I'm one of those weirdos who uses a desktop.) It charged up fine. And when I plugged my cell phone in it charged pretty quickly too.

So whatever the problem is is limited to my front USB panel. Guessing it's some sort of power limiting like ducks said. I'll poke around the device manager later.

Since the back ports are kind of a pain to reach I'll just keep using my cell phone charger for the Kobo.
