It doesn't work well with my Toshiba notebook. If I have it plugged in and switch the notebook on then some keys in the upper right won't work. :confused: When I re-plug it I get a 'USB voltage exceeded' error. After resetting the USB port everything is fine. That notebook has other USB issues so it's probably the notebook.

Maybe try a USB hub?

its strange because it has been working well....i mean only today when i plugged in a usb pen in the keyboard did this started to happen....it seems to be working well in my desktop, and ive thought it might have been the keyboard hub that went dead...but in my desktop i plugged the mouse in the HHKP and its working fine.......strange.....i think it may also have been the chipsed update drivers....might have messed with the usb controllers.

You might try plugging the keyboard into the same port as you normally plug it in, and plug the drive in on the same port that you plugged it into.

Then, uninstall the driver for the drive, then the hub, then the keyboard, unplug the drive from the keyboard, and the keyboard from the computer, reboot, then plug the keyboard back in.

Correct. And, you'd be doing all of this in Device Manager.

(Win+R, devmgmt.msc, then pop open Universal Serial Bus controllers, with the devices in question all UNPLUGGED. When you plug them in, you'll see them come up in the list.)

This one's not going to make any sense, but does the laptop have SpeedStep? If so, enable it, set it to use a slow profile on battery, and a fast one on AC. Unplug the laptop from AC, plug in the keyboard, then plug in the AC adapter.

It just might work.

(I've had on my previous two ThinkPads keyboard lag in some games, and changing CPU speed while the affected program was running usually fixed it. My current one doesn't have that problem, though.)

SpeedStep = a technology on Intel processors, mainly mobile processors, that underclocks the CPU to save battery.

Well go figure i used a 1.1 usb hub, connected the hhkp2 through it and now it works, this must have been because of an update to the bios i did to my clevo m860tu, cant see anything else....

SpeedStep is in the Windows power settings on XP and higher, I believe.

It also must be enabled in the BIOS, where it is often referred to as EIST (Enhanced Intel Speedstep Technology).

Usually, though, if EIST is disabled in the BIOS, the CPU defaults to its lowest speed.

Anyway, my first ThinkPad, an X21, just had Intel SpeedStep technology, not EIST. I forget what the difference was... maybe EIST undervolted the CPU as well?
