    Hi Guys,

    Anybody had any issues with the output from the USB Powershare on the 17 R2 ?
    I am trying to charge my wireless Razer Ouroboros via the dock at nightime, and despite it lighting up and going through the "charge lighting zones " , there seems to be ZERO power in the mouse and that's after being left on all night.

    I am guessing i may not be alone in this issue?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    look on bios and enable the powershare option if it is disabled
