    Hi There

    A friend asked me to have a look at their computer. Runs fine, quite slow as Windows does over time but when a USB device of any kind is plugged in it causes the computer to freeze. I've tried updating the drivers etc but nothing working. In the USB part of the devide manager there is one that says "Unknown Device" when there is nothing plugged in.

    Hoping someone can help me with this.

    Cheers
