Hello. I don't know what kind of a unit the reader is, but on SSF Tech
Shuttle forums[0] i remember there was talk about the SN95G5's USB bus
not providing sufficient power to the devices. Try without other USB
devices, like mice or keyboards. At least the older SN95G5s had this
problem and i don't think i ever saw a solution for it. It's not that
the PSU couldn't provide the power, the USB bus just isn't channeling it
properly. Mine is V 2.0, but i've never used any USB devices so don't
have any first-hand experience on this.
Too bad that information like that never made it to these parts of the
Internet. I dislike webforums myself, and i think it's a huge pity that
they're as popular as they are. I'd like to see all that plentiful
discussion being held on the Usenet instead. I don't have anything
against Sudhian's (one of which the SFF Tech is) webforums as such, just
in general.
Anyway, i hope it's not the power issue you're experiencing, since there
appears to be no cure.
