    Hi all,

    Here I go again, I have the acer 8210 fresh install of windows xp pro with all of the updated drivers... My problem is, when I plug an ext. drive or a ext dvdrw to one of the two USB ports on the right my computer crashes. I tried new drivers and on the end reinstalled the OS but it did not help. The only time it works is, if I plug the device when the computer is off, when I trunt it ON all works fine...
