sure the USB hub is properly connected to your computer and is active.

port may be disabled. Verify that you have connected the tablet to an active USB port.

tablet directly into the system USB port located on your computer. Temporarily eliminate any

functional. When the tablet is working properly, it is usually okay to then move the tablet to a USB
hub.
