aha! I don't think I picked up in all this discussion that you were using a USB-Bus powered HD with the TOUCH (you probably mentioned it, and I didn't notice). One of the main recommendations on successful use of a HD with the TOUCH has long been to use a HD that has its own power and is not using power from the TOUCH USB connector. Sorry I didn't notice this. It would have save you a lot of time. Glad to hear you have it working. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96488 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
